Christmas 2015 has come and gone. It seems like there is so much preparation and stuph that goes into the event, only to have it zip past us so fast, we don't even realize that it is over. The other day I went into Starbucks, ordered my drink and got into the car feeling like …
Depth of Heart – The Artistry of Alana Devine..
This past Friday, I was presented with a couple of things that stilled me. First was a video of the celebration of life for a renowned rugby player, Jonah Lomu.
