I have changed favourite colours through my life. Now I’m in dark blue or dark green phase and your “This moment” and “Faith in the journey” reflect well how I’m leading my life right now. (I love how you name colours!) I’m an immigrant in Canada and I have questioned if I made the right decision, but with faith in my journey and living the moment I take every day and appreciate everything I have learned and have overcome so far! Life is beautiful! ❤

[@ExpressionFiberArts]
