Daily Coffee Talk~ 55/365
Hi my friends, Lea’s quarantine ended today! We have a negative covid test and the birds are singing again in our neighbourhood.

Good Morning, Sitting here at home and caring for my lovely daughter who is in quarantine with covid, I find time playing games with me. It goes fast, then very slow only to go fast again reminding me that I have absolutely no control over it. That is one of the natures of time, it…

We are like chameleons constantly morphing to meet new situations and it is very peculiar to observe the subtle…

Good Morning, Starting late today but it’s morning somewhere. I chose to spend another day today at the expo and visit some of the pavilions. There is so much to take in at an event like this that you need to stand still sometimes and assess what the significance of all of it is .…

Morning Coffee Talk~ 33/354
Good Morning, It has been raining so much here in Dubai the last two days, it reminds me that anything can happen despite our projections and familiar expectations.
