s.d.g. = soli deo gloria
Maybe you’ve asked yourself “what the f… are those funny letters somewhere on all of Enrico’s parts and bikes?”. Many artists of the medieval times and the baroque era have put these Latin words (or just their three initials) on their artwork. The reason for it was to explain that they understand their artwork as a glorification and praise of God. Soli Deo Gloria translates into “Glory to God alone”.
Enrico is committed Christian. Jesus is the boss of and in his life. Therefore he wants to glorify God with his work instead of looking for his own fame. Why am I doing that? Because I owe him everything. Jesus alway was and is endlessly good to me. He has shown so much patience and loves me even though I screw up things so often. He always straightens what I’ve messed up.
So this is my way to say
“thank you Daddy! without you I would be nothing and I could do nothing:
Glory to you alone!”
