It is July 21, 2007 today. The sun rose over the small Martindale town in Pennsylvania, not far off better known town on map, sandwiched between Hinklestown and Terre Hill. It is a wonderful day; there is no reason why we shouldn't be glad to be alive. I am sitting here on the sofa before the TV, but TV isn't on. I am all here, on my computer. Thinking. And writing.

I just wrote a prayer and send the email out to Vicky and Mark, and then fax it from my email to my family as well. I hope they took it well-intented, not with ill will. I have no intentions to cause ill will among man, but I thank God that He created me thus and I am glad to be alive. Still, even in my contentment, I want to strive for excellence.

I am reading the book, Turning Your Dreams Into Realities. Rather simple title, but a profound book. It remind me of books I have read that is written by Robert Schuller. Positive thinking, I understand now, is so much like faith. I thank Lord for revealing this to me. I need to live beyond the negative thinking. I grew up in very negative environment, very legalistic environment, so I need to change the mindset I am in.

Anyway, it is Terre Hill Days this weekend. I would like to go later today, but I want to pick up my laundry first.

I slipped last night, and IMmed Mark. I keep forgetting that this is weekend, and I made a pact for myself that I won't bother him over weekend. Only he will IMmed me. I was just interested in his welfare, that's all. But I was disappointed to find out that he was still at Lori's at 11 PM. It is his choice, really. Just that I was thinking he want to be safe from further fornication, he shouldn't stay so late in night with his girlfriend. And plus, he have done hugging and kissing...I hope he keep it in moderation. But it is not my place to boss him, I have told him about what I was taught about no-touch courtship, and he felt that touching is necessary to show love to his girlfriend. I could see he is not open-minded about it all, so I just let it go.

Anyway, tonight I plan to go to Keystone Koating's company picnic.

Oh right now, I am busy talking on AIM. Oh how I love chatting online. Brent Miller talk with me on Yahoo, then Debbie Towles. Jacklyn went online, so I IMmed her. Soon, Mark IMmed me....then Fermin Cal from Belize is talking with me on MSN. Wow, what a wonderful world!
