Leave of Absence for an indefinite period
My apologies to friends and acquaintances who had been following my blog for a long absence. I am now on leave of absence from blogosphere due to my God-given commitment and duty of caring for my infirmed father who is in his early nineties. Since I have no access to my broadband in my present location, so I regret very much for this temporary embargo on my blog. God-Willing, I shall be back when time permits. Kind Regards.
