Title: When Peace Becomes the Greater Victory

By Ivory waki / Solvoice
The whole of last week was both satisfying and relieving for me. The long-standing issue with the contractor has finally come to an end. The final resolution from PPIC was signed, the variations were verified, and the payout to the contractor was raised. For my part, I declined to be a witness to the resolution. This was not because of disagreement or resentment, but simply a personal decision—an exercise of my right to step back after everything that had unfolded. Through this experience, I learned something deeper about working within church institutions like ACOM. In many organizational environments, the focus is often on being technically right—ensuring that every clause, every condition, and every loophole in a contract is addressed. But within a church organization, there is often a higher priority that guides decision-making. Peace. Peace between people. Peace between the parties involved. Peace within the institution itself.

Why This Skirt Makes Me Feel Confident and Comfortable

By Ivory waki / Solvoice

There are some clothes you wear because they are trendy, and then there are clothes you wear because they make you feel good.

This skirt is one of those pieces for me.

What I love most about this skirt is how it fits my body. It sits comfortably on my waist and falls straight down, giving me a neat and confident look without feeling tight or uncomfortable. I can sit, stand, walk, and move freely, and that matters a lot in my day-to-day life.

The design is simple but unique. The front panel with the lace-up detail adds character and makes the skirt stand out without being loud. It’s not trying too hard — it just quietly says this is me. I love that balance.

Another reason I love this skirt is how versatile it is. I can wear it to work, to meetings, or just for a casual day out. Paired with a cardigan and sneakers, it feels relaxed and practical. Dressed up with nicer shoes, it easily becomes smart-casual.

Most importantly, this skirt makes me feel confident in my own skin. It reminds me that fashion doesn’t have to be expensive or complicated to be meaningful. Sometimes, it’s just about how a piece of clothing makes you feel when you put it on.

This skirt feels like me — comfortable, practical, and confident. it still gives me the same confident feeling like when I am in skinny jeans and boots and yet still respects the religious and cultural boundaries in my new work place.

When Culture and Modern Life Collide: The Women of Malaita In Malaita Province , women continue to walk a fine line between modern expectations and traditional customs . While modern life brings education, independence, and the freedom to choose, culture still defines how a woman should behave, speak, and live. This ongoing clash leaves many women caught in between — struggling to find balance and a sense of identity in a fast-changing world. The Traditional Role of Women Traditionally, Malaitan women have been the heart of the home. They cook, care for children, and support their husbands in gardens and communities. A good woman is expected to be humble, respectful, and quiet. In many areas, men make the major decisions, and women’s opinions are often left unheard. These customs have shaped communities for generations and remain strong today. The Arrival of Modern Influence Modernism has slowly entered Malaita through education, religion, and technology. Young women are now attend...

It was such a moment for me to see my baby sister glowing, bright like the early morning sunrise. My heart slowed with tears of joy as I turned on my phone and watched the photos and videos she sent from their island night at Onepusu Theological College. As her older sister, I have walked through moments of hardship in my earlier years, doing my best to support her financially so she could reach her true destiny. And now, I believe she has — and will be — graduating next week with a Diploma in Theology from Onepusu Theological College, a South Sea Evangelical Church (SSEC) institution located in West Areare, in the western part of Malaita Province, Solomon Islands. Baby sister in Yellow dress She told me, “Ivory, last night was the most enjoyable night ever.” The Year 3 students ( That's Us) hosted the event as our final gathering with the staff, families, and students before graduating and leaving the school. It is a tradition here — a night to sit together, laugh, celebrate, and ...
