Children are the Future


Children see the entire world in a different way than adults. The innocence of discovery is something we all enjoyed.

Religion & Theology


I've always been interested in Religion & Theology. As I child, I questioned everything. I wanted to know why this denomination was different from that denomination.

April 2015 is dedicated to my journey to those beliefs.
