Short for “Pi Inflation.” The pi equivalent of inflation, when more digits of the decimal number π are needed over time for computational or practical purposes to achieve a better accuracy or to prevent potential astronomical mishaps.
In the past, ordinary folks needed at most three digits of π for most everyday math computations; later, rocket scientists used fifteen digits for interplanetary missions; and today numerologists need millions of them to search for someone’s date of birth, cellphone number, wedding anniversary, or lottery or lucky numbers—piflation is inevitable to satisfy man’s ever-growing mathematical needs and wants.

When you refuse to give up even when others have disappointed or deserted you, as new restorations or resurrections are on your way—before Jesus went to the cross to die for our sins, He was so troubled in the Garden of Gethsemane that He asked his disciples to stay there and pray for Him, but He couldn’t rely on them for their support because they fell asleep.
Are disappointments, betrayals, or sicknesses taking their toll on your life? Look no further, because there is grace for every Gethsemane if you would only turn to the Son of God for your deliverance and healing. Let Him turn the frustrations and obstructions into resurrections and promotions.

Short for “Covid-19 in Singapore.” The “fine” city that has the world’s least ratio of the number of deaths to the number of infections—as of August 23, 2020, there are only 27 deaths from 56,353 infected cases.
If the US and the UK had real political leaders in charge of the pandemic crisis, their 😷 and 💀 statistics could be like those of 🦠₁₉🇸🇬, where a high infection rate needn’t yield a high mortality rate—when deaths aren’t treated as mere digits or statistics.
