Harobed TALES

   More often than not, we think that we hold the reins of our life but truth be told, it is just a make belief to boost our esteem and make us think that we are in charge of our lives when in the true sense life is in charge of our lives. Something so powerful can happen so suddenly and your life gets pivoted in a totally different direction and in just a moment with the littlest of effort your life changes forever. Almost like the Chaos theory, a small incident that can have a big impact on your future.        It sounds like mindless musings from a random person but it is not mindless and neither am I a random person, because a little bird whispered in my ears that you have read about me. Yes! Me! I am she, the one who he referred to as “his number one”. This is not a defense or acceptance of guilt but rather a chance to share with you what I consider my truth, because I’m only human and no matter how high our values may be, we all fall down...

Whatever the case may be, it is working.  I never envisioned myself, in any ten possible future scenarios, that I would have a side chick! Life humbles and "it could never be me" can b...

He and Mother slept in separate rooms, it was almost impossible that she would hear his phone ring from afar, but then what could she do? She had to try, as they were in the better position to know who to call and what to do. In all of this I could barely hear her anymore as the pain gripped me again. I hung up on her, as I couldn’t bear to allow her hear me s...
