Journey 
Through 
Suffering

When I first heard about it, I was filled with an overwhelming sense of pride. For a community shorn of such festivities, Awllen was an opportunity to unwind, regroup and refocus.

Thank You, Dear Friends!

Dear Friends,
How time flies! It was just like yesterday but now it has been over four months since my beloved wife & soul-mate Khomting (Khomlianting) left for her eternal home. The question is not to speculate whether she is with the Lord in heaven, or if she is somewhere in a dark-pit, in a dunge…

A Daughter With A Heart!

A few things about last night's Janie Janezokim's birthday celebration.

Janie wanted to celebrate her birthday in her own way. For the past one week she talked of nothing but her birthday. She said, "Papa, I'll invite only those I'm really closed to. I don't want too many people to turn up also". I…

Happy Birthday, Janie!!

When Janie Janezokim was born on this day 9 years ago at J.N. Hospital, Imphal, I remembered being asked by a lady patient/attendant why we were in the hospital. My uneasy and simple answer was: "Pokpa!"

Saying Goodbye Is Not Easy.....

When we returned home on March 31, 2009, our church was like an old memory. I didn't know what to expect. A lot had changed during the past few years. I was aware that we had a young Mizo pastor. Early the next morning after the church's morning devotion service, he walked into our house to pray. We…

I received this picture captured by my brother-in-law Mr. Minthang Khuptong on December 29. The picture was taken as my wife Khomting Vaiphei's condition deteriorated. As she was on drips, I was by her side fiddling with my mobile when my brother-in-law captured us through his mobile phone. This cou…
