Life is not just about a spiritual journey. it’s wrong to help satan destroy our life here in Dominica and talk about a spiritual journey.
I remember the song “Hypocrites”, they all gonna pay the price some day because pretense in one thing but karma is a beeeeech.
Congratulations Jermainia, but Montage Domnik was actually published by River Ridge Press, Dominica.
