There’s a philosophical take to our life. We are here for a purpose. Each of us is designed for a particular vocation. It is for us to find out what we are made for and find our way through myriad life situations to get there. Not an easy thing, considering the fact that we’ve lots... Continue Reading →

Have a device having Dolby Atmos? And, a pair of high-fidelity Bluetooth headphones? And, the state of mind to indulge in a nerve wracking cinematic experience? Say at 10 in the night? Yes?
