| To Thank A City | |
|
|
| The city has given me a lot to be thankful for - a job, a home, a weather so wonderful it feels like paradise. And yet, among all the things that have been gifted to me by this city, what I value the most is its people. Before I bid this city goodbye, I feel the need to thank all those I haven't thanked before - Oh yes, I wanted to; but never had t...

| The Faded Photograph (Part 2 of 2) | |
|
|
| The girl had come to me, an old beggar, seeking my help. I wish I had refused her then. You can never imagine how terrible it is to die with no loved one near. I should have asked her where she lived. Fates can be so cruel. But I am getting ahead of myself. This is no way to tell a story. The temple priest gave us our first true lead."Ask Khalida; ...
