A not so happy birthday

never in my 37 years of existence has somebody every ruined my birthday until now. Instead of feeling happy I am now full of anger in my heart because of one person who provoked like no one else ever has. Why did it have to be like this? This person whom I thought is my friend turns out to be one big bully. There is nothing that hurts more than being treated like trash on your birthday by someone you cared about. I will never forget this day and what that person did to me.

Birthday Musings

I woke up this morning and realized that I am a year older. My goodness! I'm 37 years old already! Is this a dream or a nightmare? They say that we gain more wisdom as we grow old so I guess I am thankful for that. I still have a lot of things that I want to do and accomplish before I turn 40. Settling down is one of them of course. =) Other things would include winning a gold medal in the national judo championships, go sky diving, etc and do missionary work in Japan.

It only seems like yesterday that I was a young kid. Time flies indeed. I am an adult and I have set aside childish ways behind me. I am an adult with lots of responsibilities. I hope to draw more closer to the Lord as the days go by especially as I share the good news of the gospel to my fellow athletes. The experiences that I've had, the skills that I acquired, the friends that I have are all part of what I am today, a disciple of the Lord Jesus Christ. I look back over my years that have gone by and thank the Lord for everything that was and about to come.
