True leadership is lonely. When you're leading with integrity, fairness, and vision, you're often making decisions others don’t fully understand — or want to resist. You’re carrying responsibility that most people can’t see, and balancing expectations from all directions: students, parents, teachers, the ministry, the community.

THE DRIVE IN
Each morning I leave
the quiet hush of home,
engine stirring the stillness
as I slip onto the freeway—

Weathering a Stormy Week
This past one week has been one of the most emotionally and professionally challenging periods I've experienced in a long while. It started on Monday with a disciplinary issue involving some students whose behavior had escalated beyond the usual classroom mischief. What began as a routine inquiry turned serious quickly—I had to call in the parents, not just for information, but for intervention. The conversation was tense. I found myself balancing between being the leader, the mediator, and in some ways, the bearer of unpleasant truths. It wasn't easy. The parents’ initial ignorance and resistance tested my patience, but I reminded myself that defensiveness often stems from worry and helplessness. Still, I carried the weight of that encounter well into the evening.

My little angel
with your senseless giggles
you woke me up
with your pink toothless smile
you saw me off
with your dimpled cheeks
you greeted me home

the lost voice
The world seem a little dark
The sun seem less brighter
The wind seem a little harsh
The moon seem much dull
The surrounding seem a little crowded
