(Pic credit: kaiashiversblog) Welcome back Madam Grace! It's nice to have you around again." "Hello Mike! Oh I missed you all too." He rushed forward to help her PA drag her luggages out of the car. "I hope you enjoyed your trip ma?" "Definitely and I got a gift for you." She turned and beckoned on her PA who rushed forward with a small transparent shopping bag which she presented to the awe struck Mike. "Ah madam God will bless you oh!" Mike cradled the bag with unreserved excitement. His glance slightly drifted towards his colleagues who were by the door then back to the beautiful and glamorous middle aged woman heading into the hotel. "Bless you too my son." Her smile widened as he ushered her through the automatic doors into the cool lobby followed closely by her PA and the porter who wheeled the luggages closely behind them. Mike smiled and walked over to join the guards standing by the scanner. They ...

Its no secret that I detest hospitals and general hospitals are usually a nightmare. So it happened that I had to go to a general hospital, don't ask me why but with my recent experience I have come to realize that the general hospital is not such a terrible place. Well, especially when nobody is dying. At this point I must commend the young doctors who work at general hospitals particularly the pretty young ladies I met. You are all amazing. The crowd of patients waiting to see the doctors left us speechless and in shock initially. Anyways, we grudgingly got numbers and joined the queue which was being manned by a very professional young hospital guard. Nobody could cut corners or do the usual IM (man know man) with him around. He was the only guard on duty at that section and was also doubling as a GOPD nurse because some of the nurses were obviously not on seat (God bless that young man). If not for him we would have spent all day at the hospital. I didn't kno...

"Hello Nikky nwa..." "I'm still in bed joor... leave me alone..." Her laughter buzzed in my ears and filled my sleepy head like the sound of the phone when she had called. I rolled my eyes while wondering what made me forget to mute my phone. " Nne eh it's a Saturday and I need to go back to sleep...What's up?" "Sorry oh! Just that something amazing came up. Going hill climbing and sightseeing with a couple of friends and I knew you would love..." Sleep disappeared and then this happened...Wow!

(Getty image) Have you had a good laugh today? Okay, that bar is probably too high for you so let me lower it. Have you smiled today? Oh you've been too busy with work or worries so where's the time for a silly smile or laughter? Do you know that; " Laughter decreases stress hormones and increases immune cells and infection-fighting antibodies, thus improving your resistance to disease? " Chai I had to copy that from Google just to explain what you are missing out on. It's no secret, I love laughing. Infact, I am my own comedian. I find a reason to laugh everyday and the effect is I can go a year without a trip to the doctors. I can still recall the day I told my doctor to refund my money after he told me "Nne Nothing is wrong with you" or is it the story of how my acting career ended simply because I ended up laughing instead of crying on set and everyone joined in... don't blame me, the dead man's face was too hilari...

Why does our Easter Vigil Mass have to be so late in the evening? As we draw closer to Easter, I want to speak of the Easter Vigil Mass in the life of the Church while also addressing the question of why it starts at the scheduled time of 9:30 pm (and not earlier). In the liturgical year, it is the Sacred Triduum that stands as the high point of the entire liturgical year as the Triduum commemorates the Lord Jesus’ passion, death, and resurrection. For it is in these mysteries that Christ accomplishes His redeeming work of freeing us from sin and gifting us with a share in His eternal kingdom. This “triduum” contains the three separated, but deeply connected moments of the Mass of the Lord’s Supper on Holy Thursday evening, the Celebration of the Passion of the Lord on Good Friday, and the Easter Vigil in the Holy Night after dark on Holy Saturday. In fact, these three moments are so intimately connected that they are kept as one liturg...
