New Year

Today is the new year. Did not do much except for a small gathering at aunt Ida's house with my parents and Unc Vincent and Ivan. Chatted over lots of things, catching up on our lives.

It was nice to be able to meet old acquaintance, reminiscing about the old days.
Plans to blog more but somehow getting busier and lazier.

But it is a start. :)

Happy New Year everyone! May all your wishes come true. On second thought, I don't want to wish that. Let me put something to show what I mean.
The title is:

I ask God.

“I asked God for strength that I might achieve.
I was made weak that I might learn humbly to obey.

I asked for health that I might do greater things.
I was given infirmity that I might do better things.

I asked for riches that I might be happy.
I was given poverty that I might be wise.

I asked for power that I might have the praise of men.
I was given weakness that I might feel the need of God.

I asked for all things that I might enjoy life.
I was given life that I might enjoy all things.

I got nothing that I asked for, but everything I hoped for.

Almost despite myself, my unspoken prayers were answered.
I am, among all men, most richly blessed.”
