Tried to reach him many times the few days after but to no avail. I was worried. Wonder what happened. And yes, he's finally back. Long story but am glad everything's back to normal.

Reported for work only at 11am cos Gloria asked for permission from Prof Halliwell to let us rest a while longer. The trip was GOOD! The team building activities were fun, esp. the fremantle prison torch-light tour on Wed night. We visited the prison and we were told to imagine ourselves as male convicts for 1.5hr.

Ephesians 5:1-5
One of the best-concealed landmines in the life of a believer is covetousness.

Covetousness is an intense yearning for something we do not have coupled with the belief that we will not be happy or satisfied until we get it.
