(Episode 45) Kalutara, Sri Lanka. Life wasn't easy, but Ranjith Kaunamuni built himself a life. Ranjith finally settled into his Batik and woodcarving trade and worked in his small workshop/home on the beach. Life was starting to pick up since his art was becoming more popular. Everything changed on December 26th, 2004. No one knew what a tsunami was, but unbeknownst to the little beach town one was on its way. Thankfully due to some quick thinking Ranjith was able to survive, but the life he had built was washed away. Even with all of that, the man sitting across from me was one of the happiest people I had ever met. How is that possible? With everything gone, he rebuilt his life around the the only thing that matters, his family, and treats everyday as a gift that might not come again tomorrow.
