This is a post that is difficult for me to write... Recently, I just lost my beloved grandmother who passed away on Aug, 26, 2017 of illness and we will miss her terribly. She was one special lady and the loss of her is felt deeply by many, even though she lived a full life.  For the past coup...

I am always looking for inspiration in different places and from different sources. I have a great group of friends and family that share an uncanny ability to inspire me. However I still value being motivated by those less fortunate than myself. I am especially inspired by those who are clearly wor...

We knew she was the one the first moment we spotted her in the large group of puppies in the play area. “I want that one,” I said as I pointed at her. I was about 10 years old and I loved the dog I already had but I felt a special connection to this adorable one with the distinct brown coloring ...

My mum has had such an impact on my life. She raised four kids, some of it single-handedly and this has moulded her into the person she is today.

Of course, you were making funny jokes and just being yourself around our friends. I saw you walk away and just had this feeling of wanting to get t...

This tribute is long overdue. There are so many things I want to thank you for, and I’m sure I’m going to still be missing some by the end of this tribute. But here is a small token of my gratitude for just being by my side in this life and making it all worthwhile. Thank you first of all f...

Linda McEvilly is a truly exemplary woman. To come across a person with so much compassion and willingness to drive poverty and suffering out of her home town is an awe-inspiring experience. So often we will see people posting their staged acts of kindness on social media, awaiting praise and applau...

My love, It's very hard to know where to begin. It is difficult to capture in words what I feel so strongly in emotions, but I'm going to try. You my son, have changed my life in more ways than I had ever imagined possible. As I carried you inside of me, I was so busy rushing to get things prepa...
