Reflections: Do It For God
The moment Joseph did not comply with Potiphar’s wife’s request he did not make a big deal out of it by screaming it out for all to see but the accuser was the whistle blower. To Joseph, it was about him and his relationship with God. It was never about being seen and noticed by…

Reflections: “The Epitaph of Reading”
"There was a time when reading was a highly valued activity that was considered essential for personal growth and enlightenment. Books were regarded as the gateway to knowledge and understanding, and they played a crucial role in shaping the way people thought and acted. However, in today's fast-paced world, reading seems to have lost its significance, and many people view it as a tedious and time-consuming task." "This has led to a decline in reading comprehension and critical thinking skills, which are essential for making informed decisions and understanding complex issues. Additionally, when people stop reading, they miss out on the joy and fulfillment that comes from exploring new ideas and perspectives." "So, what can we do to prevent the epitaph of reading from becoming a reality? One solution is to make reading more accessible and engaging. This could involve creating more public libraries, offering free e-books and audiobooks, and promoting literacy programs in schools. Additionally, we can encourage people to make reading a regular part of their daily routine and to prioritize it over other activities that may be less beneficial."
