Patience

As I type, I am listening to gentle rain (the real thing) and an album by Hillsong Worship that reminds me of some of the best times of my life, worshipping in the Dominion Theatre in central London.

Brief Personal Update

It’s been a few weeks since I posted. Sadly, I attempted to end my life and have spent the last four weeks recovering in hospital.
