I have been alive for 33 years now. It seems like it has been so short and yet so long. The experiences I have had in my life seem like it is a bit ridiculous that they could have only spanned 33 years!!!
My birthday was very nice! My sister took me to hear the Messiah sung. As I sat there absorbing the music, I felt like that it was a glimpse of what heaven could be like. The music, the praise to the King of kings!
Music speaks to my soul and I felt so uplifted and encouraged leaving there and there was no sermon, yet, I felt like I just heard one!
This year has been a wonderful year! It was full of many blessings and I feel I have learned a lot. School is going well, although I have my frustrating moments. But, I believe everyone has those, if they will admit it!
Basketball is almost over!!! I am excited for it to be over, but the boys had an amazing time, it was really good for them. It was a big sacrifice for the rest of us, but I believe we will keep going, if they want to! The exercise, the teamwork and working with some really great parents and children was wonderful. I had no time for reading!! I learned how to cheer and lots about basketball this year!
I am really enjoying volunteering at the library once a week and also working on writing ideas. I am making some goals to work towards this year with my writing, so hopefully next year, I can say I have written something…even if it is never published!
God has blessed me with good friends and family and I feel very satisfied. I feel happy, even though things are still hard and yet, I always get a nagging feeling something really bad will happen again when everything seems good. But I know that really, things are not perfect, but God has given me contentment in it right now.
Happy Birthday. It sounds like a good year.
