overflowing

I had the privilege of visiting Batticaloa once again. This time it was to help out with missions team I work with from Church. We have been helping widows and kids who have been affected by the war now for a little more than two years. It has been a blessing working with the team. 

I went up there last Saturday to help with the the Christmas Program we are organizing for the kids there.


Batticaloa took a different shape this time. It had been raining really heavily and it had made the lagoon overflow. The atmosphere was filled with silence. It was very different from the Batticaloa I visited before.

We were on our way to a School in Vavuna Theevu which is towards the A5 from the Batticaloa town. 

This man who was transporting grass was having a hard time getting across to the town. The lagoon was making waves and they were sweeping across the road. Looked beautiful, but was not that great for the people who took the road.


See how the road is covered with water?


These kids has come to the School to play. They were having a ball.


The friendly one, love the little fella!


I was always fascinated by the guys who carried firewood. Especially cause they carry an insane amount of firewood on those small bicycles.


Look at this guy :O Just amazing.



The smiles we were able to bring in to these people's lives give this awesome feeling of happiness and fullness. It just can not be explained. Once you put your hands in to it, you won't feel like taking em out :) Looking forward to do more work in the years to come. (This picture was taken by Kalu Kella)

On a different note, I have been neglecting this blog now for a while. Finally, Darling made me make a stand and start running it again. I'll try my best to post as often as I can. I apologize for not commenting on any of your posts recently.

Everything is better than awesome for me. When you find the best thing in the world it's a little hard not feel awesome and proud :P *runs around* heeeee B-) You just keep overflowing, and you refuse to stop. How do I keep up? ;)


Hope you enjoyed the post.
Cheers!

Come out soon!

I always find it hard to keep this blog alive when I have all the time in the world on my hands. Like, during my previous holiday, I didn't post at all. I guess everything falls into place for me when I get extremely busy. I know it's weird, but I'm cool like that. I have been spending time these days helping darling find a good university to transfer to. recently I figured out the options available in countries like Malaysia and Singapore are superb. What do ya'll think? Other than that, I'm helping out with the construction of our new studio. I'll keep ya'll updated on that. It's turning out to be super!

I still have not got the chance to step out of home. Have been spending hours in front of the computer screen. So, very little pictures these days :\ I rarely take my camera out. Really wish I could make a trip down south or something. Was planing to do something with my university friends, everyone seems to be busy.

Got a few pictures over the past couple of weeks.


If ya'll can remember, this is the view from my roof top. The signature coconut trees :P


This was a few weeks back, if you look closely, you'll be able to see the aircraft. I love how it has left the trail. I aircraft is almost invisible. I find it cool. 

 

This picture is quite old, it was taken at uni a few months ago. I really miss sipping Nescafe and eating chocolate biscuit with my buddies. Can't wait to see them again.


I love how the navy boat is placed right under the sinking sun. I have not seen my sunshine in a while. Miss her terribly. Hoping to see her soon, and waiting for her to let her light shine down again ;) JiJi!


I have a few more pictures on the way. Will upload them as soon as possible. Sorry for not keeping in touch with your blogs. I'll do soon. Hope you enjoyed the post.

GOD bless

Cheers!
