The Lord Will Avenge You..Just Chill!

Over the past week I have been confronted with injustices left, right and centre. I have been overlooked, excluded, disrespected and ignored, and yeah it hurts.

Discipline comes from a Latin word “disco” which means to learn or get to know, a direct kind of acquaintance with something or someone.
