Day 40: Poplar Sunday Birthday


 



Another birthday post.  Five years now I have been able to record my thoughts on my birthday.  I wonder if there is anything beyond my 940 million kilometre journey around the sun at 107,000 kph that I  find anymore amazing than that.  I told my Mom... gone far fast.  It sure doesn't feel like I'm going far or fast.  March has gone slow.  But now I'm at the end... or almost at the end.  I'm tired and don't even think I can stay up until 9:36 pm.  The time I was actually born.   

I did go out to Kingman today to catch a presentation on a Uganda school that was started by an old friend.  It's not easy to watch presentations like that that have the end goal at finding support.  If I had extra money... it wouldn't be hard to send some their way.  I am proud of the work they did.  And it is a school, not a church.  Grant it... it is probably a school with Christian teaching in it.  Still... the whole presentation seemed very human and less evangelical.  I liked that.  They saw a need and tried to meet that need.  That is what impressed me.  

It's over a half an hour until 9:36 pm.  I don't think I will make it.  Ah the joys of getting older.
