UC Chimes: Whole is always more than the sum of parts!

One of the military's strategies for defeating enemies is "divide and conquer." This strategy is also known as the devil's favourite method to destroy an individual or a communal life.

U-turns and straight ahead

Okay, be honest, have you ever had to make a U-turn because either you didn't listen carefully enough to directions or you missed an exit? I have. This past week, however, I made two unplanned round-a-bouts and neither was due to my inattention.

Why not soar a little with those we love

I recently had a bout with the flu. After a couple of days I feared I had awakened to the state of an old man. I hoped to get better, God willing, and be able to continue serving as God calls me.

There was once a woman who had a long stay at the airport. So she bought a good book and a bag of cookies to eat. She found a nice little place, put her stuff down and started to read.

UC Chimes: Life is a journey!

From time to time I think about what life would be like. An article said, "Life is not a race to win nor is it a business to make a profit. It is a journey!" Yes, it is! Truly one's life is a journey.
