I have been 75 years old for ten days, now.  People who learn that I've just "celebrated" my recent birthday, say I hope you had a wonderful birthday.  The fact is, I'm thankful that I have been given hundreds of "special" days because every day I get up, everyday I live here on earth, is a good day.

 I feel inadequate in so many ways...loving my grandchildren and my children, but feeling overwhelmed just getting up out of bed everyday and challenged with the job of taking care of myself.  I sense that my children have, sometimes, a need for my support and prayers and I don't seem to have enough energy left over at the end of the day, many days, to reach out to God on their behalf, or to assist them in an appropriate and supportive fashion.

 My prayer to Heavenly Father is for strength, for hope, for charity... that my very small gifts will suffice and that I will feel stronger tomorrow.
