birthdays are great days!



it's been a wonderful birthday...full of family and friends and phone calls...which is exactly what makes it wonderful. thank you all for making me feel so loved...there is no greater gift.

i've been contemplating for the last week about my life, where i am, who i am and where i want to be going. it seems that to really 'keep living' we need to constantly be growing, progressing, moving in some direction. hopefully it's a direction that leads to eternal joy but that doesn't necessarily mean it's an easy direction. growth seldom is easy, and true celestial glory comes at a price. but life is good and i'm embracing getting older. i am grateful for the abundance of blessings i have been given. my life's like the song that says 'i'm sipping my plate cuz my cup's overflowing'. i want this blog to reflect my blessings and the things i hope to learn this year. i'm planning on an adventure and am glad i have all of you to take the ride with.
