HEAVENLY PEACE

Merry Christmas to my family and friends. May you enjoy the silent and holy night and find that heavenly peace.

On the start of my 47th year

No, this isn’t how I expected to spend my 47th birthday, yet I wouldn’t trade the day for anything. I have a renewed peace in the midst of this chaos.
