Why I gave up being a nice

All I ever did was care. I gave what I had. And maybe even some more..

  • I am not perfect

    A common experience for me is spinning, blurry thoughts, aka “spaghetti brain.”

  • Live like we are saved

    A couple of weeks ago there was a big concert that came to the city that I live in. It was one of the biggest concerts that hit Wellington City.

    As a teenager Mal Garvan was a dedicated ‘non-churchie.’ His life-changing encounter came at a Sydney City Mission Camp. He called it his awakening ‘dramatic’ and ‘profound.’ Enthused and energized by his new found faith Mal founded Teen Crusaders.

  • Sport injuries nearing the end of a career

    Should the reader be a sports officiardo, the list of names of those in top sport nearing the end of their careers who have retired early will be familiar.

  • Panadol won’t solve the problem

    Panadol is probably the most common drug that we use for pretty much most of our day to day illnesses such as cold & flu, headache, migraine, toothache, backache, period pain etc.

  • The Lord’s prayer

    The above line provides us with the immediate context that precedes what we know as the Lord’s prayer. A great technique for instilling into us the discipline and technique of prayer is to analyse the Lord’s prayer and rewrite it in our own language.
