What else would I like to be..........? The question comes into my mind quite often. I can get carried away thinking about it.

I quite like the idea of an editor, writting articles on the newspaper for the course of social justice. Comments on things how it could be done. But doesn't mean things will be done the way I think. Ah.....may be it could shad some light on the politicians.........???

I like to write and draw picture books for children, to use story lines to illustrate truth. To-day, I read the story of 'the Easter Chick' to the children. Instead of the usual bunnies and eggs that books portrait about Easter. It explains why Easter sometimes lands in March and sometimes in April. So the story was about astronomy. It was so fun to see the children's eyes open to the effect of the rotating earth and moon around the sun. And of course it was easy for me to explain the real meaning of Easter which ties in with the special time of the year. The cute thing was, the chick was finally hatched on Easter Sunday! That was everyone's favorite part. It was fun and educational.

How about making documentries for TV. That sounds like fun too. I will get to travel, research,
know people well by asking a lot of questions. Making the presentation attractive to people who may not have an interest of the topic to begin with.

Oh well, so much about dreaming. I once dreamt to be a child psychologist too. I am not too far from it now (except for mentally challenged children, which I am not really interested in). How did I know God would even help to fullfill my dream? A mere high school grad with no particular training in anything!

News broadcast announced to-nite, many states in America have adopted the anti-abortion law. At first I thought they have undergone a moral reconstruction. Later on, I recalled a recent report that now people in the west realize, if situation remain the same - like only one out of eight young couple plans to have family, the west will die off in matters of a few decades. Whereas their middle -east counter parts which allow a man to have serveral wives can easily father 20 or 30 children, will sure run the world.

Thinking about young couples, I have seen and heard so many young adults who didn't get marry until in their late twenties. They have better success of a compatable marriage. The thing is, young adults remains young longer these days. And there are so many more things they want to experience before they want to be settled. While still evolving and growing, the suitor that suits one's need to-day might not suit one's need to-morrow. To be a marriage partner, one has to be absolutely unselfish, giving without expectation of returns. For who knows what the other person will turn out.

It was such a touching story of Dana Reeve, who nursed her qudripelegic husband for so many years, now past away with cancer only one years after her husband died. Leaving behind a 13 years old boy. But may be that boy has one of the richer heritage, knowing that his own parents are shinning example of Love. If his parents knew the Lord, may be things would turn out differently.

Two Sundays staying home. It surprises my self. So much to do and so little time. The worst thing is emotional preoccupation, call it a hijack or tie up. Sleepless nights. Felt much better even to write long letters to myself to release the negative energy.

John came home from church and said Ben found a job of his profession, even within walking distance to his home. Praise the Lord. Now Aileen can come home from China to be united with her family. I know many prayed for the family. But wonder if there is any link to the 'Kids prayer book of Jabez' I shared with Ube on Valentine's Day and God answer the prayer of that little girl to bring her mother back from thousands of miles.

Went out with Barb last night to deliver more fliers for the sidewalk issue. Result from Municipality Hall sure doesn't add up. Almost sure they want to bulldoze us to put sidewalk in.
To-night, people say 'no' phoned. I can only account for 11 to 12 names. Gosh, we need at least 20 to win this battle. Prayed with and for Barb that she will experience God through this. Have to believe that he will answer our prayer with miracle.

Talk to mom , felt much better. She has no plan to come in May. Probably Kathy does not want to be left out in a possible reunion when Sennie and family come to Vancouver at that time to attend their friends'wedding.
