New moon of May 2026
Another lunar cycle finds her rhythm. The old brown leaves fall off the tree, and new green buds appear on stems.
I have been attending so-called “town-hall discussions”, in various industries; and cherishing precious moments with friends, and (chosen) family.
I would like to present a haiku from a friend:
no one said the road was easy; but no one said it was not joyful
And today, someone lent me colour markers and I enjoyed myself by playing with them:

As an acquaintance has reminded me:
“Just an ordinary island, with ordinary people, living ordinary lives: what an extraordinary day!”

- Will Guidara. “Unreasonable Hospitality: the remarkable power of giving people more than they expect”.
- Dr. S.E. Aw. “Chats with Uncle Loh: First Aid in Theology”
- Gail Sheehy. “Passages in caregiving: Turning chaos into confidence”.
That's all, folks! I wonder: what will the next lunar cycle look like, for you and for me? How exciting!
