biking with the wind blowing me...

yeah, hoping that my mind makes some sense in writing. my sense of black and white in matters relating to life and thoughts are becoming blurred - i hope not by the influence of new age but rather by the influence and my human understanding of the grace of God. i want these recordings to become a reminder of God's faithfulness in my golden days.
So, welcome my friend, let's learn together. I beckon you.

Welcome to Auckland

Never thought leaving Melbourne would be hard, not that I ever discounted it, but just didn't know that after doing this for years and for so often, we would still cry when we say goodbye. I guess I AM close to my sister.

Being there was really cool. I determined right from the start to be helpful around the house and with the kids, because being a mother and a housewife are not easy things. Figured that it'd be a blessing to her with me helping a little bit. I slacked off sometimes, but I'm glad I can proudly say that I did well. The children drove me up the wall sometimes, but I know I've never felt so much peace and without pure irritation from their constant "I wants".

I miss my sister. I don't know why, but in spite of our big gap in age difference, we're still tight. Of recent years it has been more like that because finally, yours truly has become an adult. I love my sister. I wish I could be there longer, but hey, that was my only chance of being a dormant member of the family. Think it's time to hit the working world or whatever call I am answering to when I go home. Holiday is going to be over ----- SOON.

I am going to work hard. I don't resent working hard.

Here's the beginning of my stay in Auckland. Bliss.
