    Perspective

    By Ruth Lawrence, UK I have read a great deal of books that I would think of as my favorites. However if I was to narrow it down, D’Artagnan Romances would be in my top ten. It is a set of three novels by French writer Alexandre Dumas, the most famous of which is The [...]

    Superman

    By Naftaly C. Sitompul, 25, United States “This way, Dad! Turn this way now!” I called out to him as we danced in front of the television. He happily took my lead. It was a beautiful Sunday afternoon. After some foot-thumping (and heart-pumping) moment, Dad dropped onto the couch and pant, “Ok, let’s take a [...]

    No Sweat!

    By Megan Low, Singapore Blood, sweat and tears. All these elements are essential to the biological processes of mammals, which of course, includes humans. Now that this article has appeared on ymiblogging, I can say that I’ve put my blood, sweat and tears into the website—in its Pen to Paper section, at the very least. [...]

    We are… but He is!

    By Samuel Magondu, Kenya I am . . . Just your average guy next door. Not someone who stands out in a crowd. Not the guy whom you will cast a second glance. Just a guy trying to make it in this big, wide world. I am the guy who will borrow money with no [...]

    Good and Evil

    By Debra Ayis, Nigeria “Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.” — 1 Peter 5:8 (NIV) The seas pound with rhythm, Like rhyme in an ancient song, The daily theme of life flows by, As the church bells go bong, bong, bong, People quickly drift [...]

    Responding to Crisis

    By Rachel Ang, 21, Singapore It is not ordinary to wake up to the sound of bullets in the streets or see burnt buildings tossing billows of smoke skyward. It is not ordinary that bloodstains smear the very roads that lead to schools or workplaces. It is not ordinary for peace rallies to turn into [...]

    Reborn Identity

    By Joe Stowell One of my favorite movies is The Bourne Identity. The main character, Jason Bourne, suffers from a severe amnesia that leaves him haunted, frustrated, and confused. A lot of us live like Jason Bourne. Our stories are not as dramatic but the issues are the same: Who am I, and does anyone [...]

    Just Entertainment?

    By Dan Vander Lugt Today there are an astonishing number of movies in this genre. A large proportion of the DVDs for rent in an average “family” video store are horror movies. The advance of computer-generated effects and digital photography has exponentially enhanced the ability of filmmakers to produce horrific special effects. But what generates [...]
