Happy Birthday

For someone whose love, kindness and generosity is amazing.
You are indeed a TREASURE that I will never be without .
I have to make certain that I can keep what you and I 
have and are still building with each passing day. 

Today is your special day, stretch for a sunbeam...
Reach for a star... Go for a beautiful dream.
Pick out some wishes, no matter how far,
Cherish some hopes that are dear to your heart.
Celebrate this day, and embrace all the reasons to believe in wishes again. They are not just for children, but also for those who remained young  at "heart''...

Wishing you a Happy Birthday Daddy.....We love you♥♥♥

The Qualities of A Seafarer's Wife

What are the qualities that a Seafarer seeks in a woman to be his wife, lover, friend and mother of his children? Is it beauty or brains? It has been said that beauty is in the eyes of the beholder...however, lasting beauty and brains seldom come into one. Intelligence goes deeper than attractiveness or beauty, ever doubt it?

Discovering the gift of writing

Writing is a gift for the chosen few, some discovered their talents early on in life, but in my case, it was at a later stage as I breached my golden years.
While studying in the University, there were no manifestations that I can write creatively. As an Engineering student, we were more inclined into the mastery of technical report writing. The style of which is relatively different than what I am doing in my blogs and articles.

To A Seafaring Dad on Father's Day

A Father's Day Tribute to the man in command of Maersk Visby as of this writing..
Our country celebrates Father's Day every third Sunday of June, and this year it falls on June 19. During this time  of the year, the king of our home is given a treat and showered with gifts. However, because he is onboard,  let this be an opportunity for self-reflection and personal growth asking himself, some of life's finest questions on the very important role of fatherhood in the molding , nurturing, and shaping of our only child's being. Conversely, for our son too, a time to assess as to how his  father had fared in his eyes as a DAD.

To Papa with Love on Father's Day


You may not be perfect and  an ideal father, and You may have thought I  that I didn't see, nor I hadn't heard, all the Life lessons  you had taught to me. However, I got every word of it.
Perhaps, you thought that I missed it all, during the times that we'd grown apart. Keeping my distance and silence was not a revenge, nor a prodigal daughter's  vengeance. It was my way of respecting your choice. It's because I know that as a Father,
you always wanted what's BEST for your children.

A Last Glimpse of an Unrequited Love

The last few nights, you pop into my dreams. I just can’t get rid of you like you got rid of me. Days continue to pass. Stars continue to shine. Why do I have tears in my eyes when you were  NEVER mine?
