 In 2011, Turku was described as the European capital of Culture. This is simply because it is one of the most beautiful cities in Finland and across the rest of Europe. I was there recently to observe the scenery and take note of what the city represents.

 Everything in life is a privilege. Opening up my eyes to see a new day is a privilege, the most important privilege of the day. All glory be to God Almighty for allowing my eyes to see the sun again. The greatest privilege of them all. Top Dawg.

Today is a privilege and it’s the best day of my life… yet!

I was wondering what the next phase of my life had to offer, distressed and anxious about what tomorrow would bring; I eased myself with the word of God and also conversations with friends.

As I lay down starin...
