Singapore — I was in an air-conditioned taxi talking to a colleague and only dimly aware of where we were. Suddenly I knew we were close to where I was going to get out and could easily walk whereas the driver wo...
Singapore — Sat in our old Starbucks choosing the next book to read. This was never a time to read but a time to catch up. I miss her.

Many I met in less affluent lands, want to be here. I wish they 'd not. Here, they'd learn to stereotype, and never make friends with me. Yes, I am selfish.

The combination of lightning flashes, thunder roars and the sound of his breathing is music to my ears.
A night of beautiful lightning flashes... This is the best I can try to capture one of them.
