In this busy city, people are always coming and going, moving here and there, trying to establish some sense of sanity.  Whilst moving to and fro, many people’s heads are so glued to their phones and iPods and iPads that we forget what it is to look up. Literally. Veer...

In this time of overnight success and being a baller and Facebook famous and all that, many think that there’s all there is.  Many of us will get discouraged when we look at our lives in comparison to other people’s lives.  This reminds me of how important it is to be...
