Finally!

Well it has happened - I can now say with pride (smile) I am older than dirt! Yes, I am 50 years, 10 hours, and 28 minutes old (29 now). I am now a half a century old and I probably will not see another half so that means I am on the down side (well at least it is down hill!).

But to be honest I feel no different than I did yesterday. I still got out of bed at my usual pace, got my coffee and ate breakfast, so in essence not much has changed. Maybe 50 will not be so bad.

Totally Bummed

OK, let me first state that I have 4:15 minutes until I turn a half century old, and the thought of that kinda bums me out. I know that 50 is not so bad and I even understand that many have never reached that golden age, but I can not help but ponder what these last 50 years have brought about.

Looking back I see that my life in many ways has been blessed. I understand many would love to be in my shoes.

But 50 ........ now that gives me pause........

The clock is running an my new mantra is:

.... I am still 49 .... I am still 49 .... I am still 49 ....

(for another 4:00 hours)

.... I am still 49 .... I am still 49 .... I am still 49 ....

Natural Law

When reviewing the subject of natural law I find it very interesting to view others people discussion on points of fact. I am currently reading a book by "J. Budziskewski" called; "What We Can't Not Know" and I am fascinated at what I see as points of fact that he gives.

There are many interesting tidbits in this book, which I call "pearls of wisdom" and they are scattered throughout this book. Let me give you one to think about (now remember he is discussing natural law):

"....everything in creation is a wannabe."

Think about that statement.

P.S.
I do not often recommend books but I would recommend this one. As with any reading keep an open mind.
