I was thinking to myself the other day how someday when I'm 65 I would get to come back here on this web page to read my blogs... What a huge grin I'd have on my face reliving these precious memories of the past, sitting with my wife and kids and hopefully grand kids, cracking up at all the funny and not so funny messages on these pages. My prayer, however, is that God keep me alive to see that day, and also that Google and blogger.com do not become extinct on the internet:-). It's just so funny how with the gloomy news that pervades the media today and all of the horrid events that occur within our immediate environs and the world at large, one is prone to live in fear and often times loose confidence in reason for existence. Pondering through these a little deeper, I start to feel that this is all a well orchestrated scheme to cause people to live in fear and thwart their faith--faith in themselves; faith in the power given to us by God to make a turn around in our lives;in our world. And so, I make a resolve not to live in fear, for the world is not coming to an end (O no! Not just yet, Ask me how I know... I just know); I will pursue my dreams and chase after my goals with even more enthusiasm than the average. For I believe this is the time to embrace our God and exercise the power of faith, patience, resilience and the fortitude needed to maintain hope and create a beautiful change in our lives and our world. My wish, however, is that you-that we-strive not to see the world as it is projected to us, but that we see this world through the eyes of GOD who created it and still supersedes all powers that be. Don't loose hope just yet, 'cause you are invited to be here with me and my family the day I turn 65!
