I arrived yet again in Japan today at 2:25 in the afternoon. I thought it was going to be hot and humid but to my surprise, it was actually raining. Nevertheless, it’s great to be back knowing that I will be able to serve the brethren once again with God’s help and grace. I am [...]

On Saturday, 12th of May, my father was buried at the Bonney-Watson Mausoleum in Seattle, WA. It was a very sad moment and we all felt the loss of my father, but it is time to move on and continue our lives without him. His physical absence will surely be missed by [...]

This weekend, one of the biggest matches in boxing history will be televised via HBO pay-per-view. I won’t be able to watch it because I will be attending our religious services on Sunday. I do not regret it because I am sure I would be able to determine the outcome when I get home. My [...]

I am very busy today at work, catching up with loads of paperwork. My job is to perform audit on government credit card transactions processed by our military buyers.
