Looking back on my 55th Year

The Good

1. Prayer and Fasting: I found new ways to honor God with my life. I developed new disciplines. My prayer life is much better... My thought-life is getting a little better. I still have issues, but I am confident that the Lord will deal with those in His time. I'm bearing personal fruit, and it's hard work. But I have joy in knowing that my feet are on the path. I'm never going back. I may fall back, but I'm not turning and walking back.

2. Helping my parents: They need me and I can give them security. It's wonderful.

3: Enjoying my sister and her family. Lisa is such a good woman.

4. My blog buddies: Skyepuppy, Tsofah, Janice, Christina, Miss Bekah, Grammy... And others that keep me entertained and connected.

5. Finding Doreen: My best friend from college... I found her happy and successful... And knowing that she remembers me fondly is such a joy.

6. My health: I can still run.

The bad

... Can't think of a thing.
