MAY.
5th month of the year, can you believe it? Do you remember your New Year's resolution?
I ran 55km last week. I still have loads to do in fulfilling my New Year's resolution, but at least I'm still on tract.
'The only way you can hurt your body
is if you don't use it.'
Think about it.

As I'm about to embark on yet another adventure, I take refuge in 1 Peter 5:6-7. 'Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time: casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.'

My friend Cynthia needs a special mention today. Although I haven't heard from her in ages I know she's thinking of me and I hope she is doing well. I always think of her as a phenomenal woman. So, girlfriend, whatever you doing, know that I'm thinking of you too. I hope the weather is getting better for you by now. As I'm off to warmer climate, I'm thinking of all my friends in the 'not-so-warm' climates.

What does easter mean to you? Has it become just another long weekend for sleep-ins and DIY's? To me it's about remembrance and embracing those memories. I especially remember those love ones that has passed on. Happy Easter everyone.

I have just finished reading the most remarkable book UGLY by Constance Briscoe.What a sad story. See my book review in FORUM.
It's unbelievable that there's people out there capable of hurting and humiliating their own flesh and blood to the extent described in this book. The lessons learned from this book is life inspiring. Constance overcame her mother's abuse and all obstacles in her way by making a promise to herself and living up to it.
We can all learn from this. Life is purposeful, I believe. Keep on dreaming and making rediculous promises to yourself. And live up to it!!!

I ran the Lincoln 10km today. See the Photo Gallery for some pics. Lincoln Cathedral is one of the finest medieval buildings in Europe. William the Conqueror's Castle in Lincoln dates back to 1068.

The power of a strong relationship sustains us and gives us strength - it's that power in knowing, if I fail, my friend is still there, or if I fail I still have someone who loves me. It's the power in knowing that - no matter what - we have a Father who still loves us.
Your home is simply a means to take you to a greater end - a heavenly end. Working together as coheirs of eternal salvation is the foundation for the home.

What goes through your mind at this very moment? I did another half marathon today. All the way up in Edinburgh. It was a great weekend. We did some sight seeing yesterday. Keep your eye on the Photo Gallery for some pics.
So, we were saying something about the mind??? Well, I was lining up with all the runners at the start of today's race and I was looking around me. You know what I was looking at? Everybody else's behinds and sizing them up to my own. What a weird thing to do, don't you think? What goes through your mind when you look at people around you? Come on, tell us what went through your mind today.

No, guys I have not turned 40, but I know of someone who did and a few more heading in that direction. One fab lady who turned 40 last year, is my friend Lucy. Janet turned 40 this week and my best friend later this year. Proverbs 3:13 especially for all the fabulous 40's out there.
Happy is the woman that findeth wisdom,
and the woman that getteth understanding.
