someone burned herself up, became light then split into total darkness. and the darkness found form, taking shape of an ancient temple, and it brought #Life #Hope and #Love. and the greatest of these was #Love

somewhere, sometime, something had exploded, expanded and become a universe...

Chango - God of Thunder #Chango (or Shango) is one of the Orishas in the #Santeria and Yoruba culture of Cuba, passed on to the next generation aurally as well as through traditional song and dance.

#Chango is influenced by his Kingly nature from when he was human, the only saint who has been through death, he is very relatable to his followers for his human traits. He is proud and is sometimes quick to anger like a storm, but he also exudes masculinity, virility and charm with the ladies. It only makes sense that Chango has control of thunder and fire.
