This weekend, I want to open up a Project Happiness that will run here on my blog for the whole 2014. I started blogging way way before, I tried different platforms and it all became an outlet for me to share my happiness, sorrows, other related emotions and activities online - even anything under the sun... from politics to mostly personal. I'm happy with the simple things I have now so I just to share it via this platform.

I thank the Lord above for a great weekend! Weekend well-spent as they say. Indeed, mine is one!
