What’s in Focus

When you look through the lens of a camera, you get to pick your object of focus. The little “red squares” help you define what the lens should sharpen, and the rest of the details will be blurry. The creative part is that you get to pick what the viewer of your artwork will focus…

He knew my name

Every morning I go into Starbucks to enjoy my vanilla latte, read my bible and have my daily devotion. This is the time that God speaks to me through His word and shows me areas of my life where He wants to come in and make better. Not only that but I get to build…

For the love of Money

Growing up I was really into this group called Bone Thugs N Harmony.  They were the pioneers of tongue twisting rap, where they would flow out super quick rhymes and make it sound really easy and smooth.  It was actually pretty impressive!  One year they came out with a song called “For the Love of…

Re-learning How to Drive

Over time, we develop patterns that become natural to us.  I lived in the USA for 32 years of my life and had been driving for 17 of those years.  So driving on the right side of the road was just natural and what you do.  About a year ago I had moved to New…

As Long As…

I find that so many people love this idea of Christianity, I mean after all who wouldn’t want to live in a world based on love?  A place where everybody is patient, kind, not envious, boastful or proud.  A place where we all honor each other, selflessly, unangered, keeping no records of wrongs.  Where we…
