Well I let the month of January pass me by. I didn't do it on purpose. I have been boggled by the fact that this year would make my 10 year anniversary of being stable living here in the country of the United States of America. Unbelievable. Sure... The fact that I've traveled more than a quarter of this earth. I've actually managed to stay still in one country for more than 5 years. Incredible what divorced parents, rebel stage, and finding Jesus did to me. I'm totally changed and born again. Now comes more reason to live life to the fullest. For my life is not mine, but for my creator God Almighty.
Life can't get any worse than what is to be probably the toughest times of my adult life. Some aspects that I kind of asked for and some that just kind of came along and I had no control over. It's all part of growing up. This world can never quench my thirst for love and truth. For grace has given to me; therefore, I shall go walk on this earth with my head up high. It's just going to be fancy. I was asked what my plans were and I said that my plans is to live and survive. Sounds like a plan to me, but not to others. I live like there's no tomorrow, but I plan my life like I'll live for another 89 years. The joy of being alive is making just want to smile a lot. I'm alive. So be happy, and content. I have Jesus in me, so I'm all good in the hood. I read his words, I follow his teachings, and I try to live it out. Done.
Well it hasn't been easy. This world is evolving as we humans are. The way we are thinking is way more advance. We want more things, we can think of more things to make and to waste, we get more things to make this world complicated enough, and we just can't have enough editions and volumes of things. I love you things, but my 5 thousand dollar microscope doesn't bring goosebumps and tears to my eyes compared to when I worship my Lord. Good things comes from above, and not from the ups truck (James 1:17). The more we know the more questions there are to raise. I think the answer's all in the bible. Perhaps not the diameter of an apple pie, but the pie itself was made to bless our bodies and to give us nutrients to make more pies to use that ability to preach the word of God and to love one another. Bing! Ya. that's right.
I can't have enough enough of bible reference my daily life. Would I say that I'm on fire and that I'm in that hungry mode? Negative. I think I've passed that. I just became more calmer these days as I know that my plans are just to make sure that the bigger plans are taking place. I know it ain't going to be easy. But I'm willing to take on this hike.
Anyways, I signed up to go do an aquathlon in SF. It's a 1.5 swim from Alcatraz to the Bay, and a 7 mile run at the Golden Gate bridge. It'd be tight. I'm just worried for the run part. I can swim that easy in 50 degree water and sharks. I've only gone skiing once this season. It's all been all just cold and dry lately, not so much snow. Poo. I also have kind of quit drinking alcohol. Long story short, I will only drink it when there's a celebration going on. Like a wedding, or a birthday, or graduation, or whatever. That's all I could think of for now.
