It’s no big secret that blogging is something very new to me. Up to this day, I still do not quite understand the meanings of link back, blog stats, and “You’re tagged” among other complicated terminologies. I can’t even figure out how to put that Technorati and MyBlogLog icons/thingies on my WordPress blog [...]

Débridement. The removal of devitalized, damaged, or infected tissue to improve the healing potential of the remaining healthy tissue. A medical/surgical terminology.
That word kept playing on my mind as I sat by the window on the eve of Easter, almost lost in thought as I set about mentally [...]

UNoriginal title up there, huh? Oh well…I’ve never really been good at coming up with creative words of art anyway.

I remember months ago, meeting you here online. You said that [...]
