Reason # 1 LIFE is always worth CELEBRATING

Image
The 60!  (For TODAY's installment, scroll down to the bottom and click on the link in blue) Turning 60 is Special Turning 60 is more than just a milestone—it's a celebration of wisdom, resilience, and life richly lived. It's a moment to pause and reflect on decades of experiences, lessons learned, and relationships nurtured. At 60, you've likely faced and overcome challenges, celebrated triumphs, and grown into a deeper understanding of yourself and the world. Sixty is special because it's the age where confidence often meets clarity. The uncertainties of youth have softened, replaced by a grounded sense of who you are. You've earned the right to say no without guilt and yes with conviction. There’s a freedom in this stage of life—a chance to pursue passions, share knowledge, and shape a legacy with intention. It’s also a time of connection. Whether through family, friends, or community, turning 60 reminds us that our most meaningful moments are often shared....

Reason # 5 KIDS: Jeandre & Minette

Image
  As I’ve said many times before, this blog is about blessings (Reasons why my life has been such a gift)—and when it comes to blessings, all others pale in comparison to the blessing my two children are to me. I’ll write more about them later, but for now, I just want to say this: As a lecturer and later Associate Professor, I have dedicated my life to learning and teaching—especially with the hope of making knowledge (qualifications)  more accessible and affordable to many. And as a social entrepreneur, I’ve done my best to help build a world that is kinder, more just, and more joyful.   But by far, my greatest joy, my truest accomplishment, is found in you—my children, Jeandré and Minette. Jeandré, with your calm intellect and curious spirit, and Minette, with your luminous brilliance and compassionate heart—you are engineers not only of data but of dreams. You build bridges not just in code, but between people, possibilities, and futures I once only imagined. Wat...
