any and every place is a secret place with my God. resting in the stillness and giving back the glory that’s due to Him

1/24 Edited to

In my personal journey of faith and creativity, I've found that spirituality is not confined to specific spaces but can be experienced anywhere. This mindset transforms ordinary places into secret sanctuaries where I can rest deeply in God's presence. Moments of stillness become opportunities to reconnect and rejuvenate the spirit. During busy days filled with work or creative projects, I often take brief pauses to engage in worship, similar to the peaceful intervals you might call "worship between sessions." These pauses not only refresh my mind but also realign my heart with gratitude and reverence. It's remarkable how intentional moments of worship bring calm and clarity amid life's demands. Whether indoors or outdoors, quiet or bustling environments, I've learned to perceive the divine in every setting. This continuous awareness cultivates a greater sense of peace and purpose, enabling me to give back glory to God consistently. Such experiences encourage embracing stillness actively rather than waiting for perfect conditions, making spiritual connection accessible anytime, anywhere.

RIDE-SHARE AND TAXI APPS IN EVERY COUNTRY OR REGIO

If you’re planning a trip abroad and planning to move around a large city, or city-to-city, you will most likely need a ride share or taxi hailing app. Uber is available in many countries, but in my experience in some countries there are not many Uber drivers, or the prices are not the best deal.

Croatia is one of my favorite places I’ve ever visited. Fun fact: Dubrovnik was the first place I ever visited in Europe during the summer months and it exceeded all my “European Summer” expectations. Croatia looks like a movie set (and that’s probably why it’s been a popular filming site
