Happy Birthday Adam

-
Our son, Adam is 21 years old today. Doesn't seem possible. It was just yesterday when we brought him home from the hospital. He's now older than I was when I married Cathy!

We are really proud of the fine young man he has become, and look forward to seeing him and his lovely fiancee', Allegra, this weekend.

On another note -- I've been under the weather for the past 24 hours. Pray for me. I have a funeral and a board meeting tomorrow, on top of preparing for FLAME classes I'm teaching next week in Maryland.

    Brother Mark;

    You will be in my prayers. I know what it's like preparing for a funeral. I can't imagine doing that and being sick at the same time. I hope you have a great time at FLAME next week.

    Happy Birthday to Adam. I am sorry to hear about the funeral.

    Please get better for FLAME. I am really looking forward to the class. Our next study for Wednesday night will be the Fay study or a similar one. That book was wonderful and has been a great revelation for me. Thank you. That alone will make every flame class I ever take worth the cost of admission.

    I know how hard it is to disrupt a regualr schedule just to take a flame course, i can not imagine the work to teach one.

If This Is Not A Place. . .

If this is not a place where tears are understood, Then where shall I go to cry? And if this is not a place where my spirit can take wings, Then where shall I go to fly? I don't need another place for trying to impress you With just how good and virtuous I am. I don't need another place for always being on top of things; Everybody knows that it's a sham. I don't need another place for always wearing smiles, Even when it's not the way I feel. I don't need another place to mouth the same old platitudes; Everybody knows that it's not real. So if this is not a place where my questions can be asked, Then where shall I go to seek? And if this is not a place where my heart cry can be heard, Where, tell me where, shall I go to speak? So if this is not a place where tears are understood, Where shall I go, where shall I go to fly? -- Ken Medema
