“Lord, I hope this day is good
I’m feeling empty and misunderstood.
I should be thankful, Lord, I know I should.
But, Lord, I hope this day is good.
I don’t need fortune and I don’t need fame.
Send down the thunder, Lord.
Send down the rain.
But when you’re planning just how it will be,
Plan a good day for me.”
Some of us have not yet been all that impressed with 2009 (I’ve attended one funeral of a friend, lost another relationship to debilitating illness, and WTF is coming on with a vengeance; I’m aware of other calamities and disappointments among blogfriends). However, we remain hopeful. Maybe it’s just a slow-starter, late-bloomer kind of year.

“It takes a lot of courage to release the familiar and seemingly secure, to embrace the new. But there is no real security in what is no longer meaningful. There is more security in the adventurous and exciting, for in movement there is life, and in change there is power.” – Alan Cohen

As some of you know, today is my birthday. Today is also a day when I’ve cried a bit. WTF is coming on strong, especially in my arms, today. Using a camera, the mouse, etc., has made a normal Sunday Post just a bit out of my reach.
But then I thought, HEY! I like to boss you people on my birthday! So YOU do the freakin’ Sunday Post!
Leave me a quote and/or a favorite verse from the Bible or your sacred book. Yea, I’m liking this idea . . .
Love you guys. I’m not quitting. I’ll be back (spoken like The Terminator).
