Everyone has relationships. Whether they are between a mother and child, a husband and wife, with close relatives, with God or with ourselves, relationships are essential to our existence. In this project, I share some of my innermost thoughts regarding some of my most cherished relationships. My hope is that these works and the words therein inspire you to reflect on some of your most treasured relationships and the value they hold for you. Enjoy!
