My personal thanks to the university for blessing us with those much-needed few days of Mental Health Break.

At least we get to somehow reclaim and regain whatever’s left of our sanity. Feel free to blame it on the Instruction overload, if you will.

Paradoxically though, we’re using this short break to dive headfirst into yet another source of insanity — Research overload:

Editing and writing the Introduction to the forthcoming ElziStyle publication, THE POLITICS OF PEACE AND THE MINDANAO PROBLEM: TRACING THE ROOTS OF A HISTORICAL INJUSTICE by Prof. Christopher Ryan Maboloc.

So, for a mere mortal known as a teacher — whose life mission is to spark FIRE (Formation, Instruction, Research, and Engagement) — there really is no such thing as a break.
