The general manager of the hotel where I work gave me the autographed copy of the book six days ago.

My long-term plans are now slowly coming to reality and I guess I’m pushing too hard to make it happen, err faster. In two months I have spent close to thirty five hundred on books, gadgets, clothing and engineering membership application fees. All the ‘wants’ and ‘needs’ that were keeping my personal savings plan on hold for months are now all mine.

Time was too long, that the seconds, hours, days, weeks, months he has spent watching, caring, loving, praying, praying again, prayer after prayer and still seeing his loved one suffering was perceived to be as the actual healing.

I went to see my managers this afternoon to tell them that I'm giving up my part-time job, as a busboy at the hotel pub, to give more time in my engineering review. Currently, I work as a full-time bellman at Travelodge Hotel Regina.

A default greeting I always hear every morning at work, and the answer is always, “I’m good.” If only I could ask those people to have a seat and grab some coffee to tell how I really feel in the past weeks.
