Many years have rolled by… pretty much alone with helping hands of friends along the way which I treasure and don’t down play.. Yet, nonetheless, it’s been overall an ‘alone’ trip physically but with God right there.

So for the meantime I thought of downloading wordpress for the phone and no I dont have facebook on my phone. I dont like … Continue reading New Idea
Pit stops is a term used for stops along a journey to refresh, rest or refuel. Obviously that has a positive connotation. Living in Sri Lanka though, maybe not so much as the present days compared to when I first … Continue reading Pit Stops of the Journey
