rarely, we meet people who believe in our dreams, who make dreams happen, who fight a good fight, who let us break and carry our brokenness into fullness. they say there are people who are stars and others who are the universe’s wonder, you are the whole universe. the absolute reason why wonders happen. an earlier congratulations on attaining this first degree!
