Relationships-who cares

You ever have one of those kinds of relationships or friends who, if you did not take the initiative, you'd never talk? Well, i mean, some may just not be interested in talking to the other person, thats cool. But I mean the ones who are just too darned busy to take time out of their busy schedule to not call you, but just drop a simple email from a computer that they spend approx. 4 hr/day on anyway. Anyway, Shabana called me tonight and brightened my dim life. I also got a chance to wish her happy birthday! So happy Birthday Shabana!

Vball tonight was good but some of it sucked. I think some of the players were also playing 'see who can be the funniest' while playing vball. Each time someone threw the ball to the server he had to either bomb it at him or throw it at the wall above him or make him miss or whatever. It was frustrating to want to play semi serious games and then have them just fool around. Not only that but new comers want to make their own versions of the rules of the game. Whatever, right?

sigh

what else?

I got a letter from Logesh Manoharan who is in India. He is my boy through Compassion International. His letter said:

Dear Sponsor MR. JEFFREY MYERS:

It is humbling to have a child on the other side of the world in the conditions that he lives in telling me that he will pray for me. His father make 21$/month when he works!


How does one really determine where God's wants them and what His will really is for them? Is it just doing what we really want to do and then convince our selves it's God's will? Still searching on that one.

Most critical 4 years!

As parents, we choose to have children and therefore we are obligated to sacrifice almost everything in our life to raise, teach and protect...
