CREATIVITY: A JOURNEY
This trip was really significant. But more on that later. The country first: I had the privilege to visit Sri Lanka last week for a friend's wedding and I have to say I was not disappointed. The people are the kindest, food is tasty, streets are clean, desserts are amazing and everyone sure knows how [...]
"I have come that you may have life to its fullest measure." That's a pretty bold statement for anyone to make, yet that is the very promise Jesus gives us. I gotta be honest.
