Since 1991
In 1991, I never knew that I would live permanently in a foreign land.
It has been thirty years during which I kept finding myself adrift.
A life uprooted from the mother country is an agony that defies any treatment.
Against the tide of uncertainties and delays in my life,
Against the tide of uncertainties and delays in my life,
I have voyaged disparate seas of Panama due to my business assignment,
Miami for my reassignment in business,
Chicago for theological study in my second career,
Nashville for a doctoral program,
and Richmond for my first second-career job.
Through the hump and bumps, I have walked a tightrope.
Through the hump and bumps, I have walked a tightrope.
Thank God. I am here. I love what I am.
Life is a vapor, yet it is not vanity.
