<p><strong> </strong>Birthdays&#8230;There’s just something about the day you were born.   Text messages, emails and phone calls from well- wishing friends and family.  Gifts you’ve longed for all year long but forgot that you wanted.  Cards with artistic ways of expressing words of love. And let’s not forget CAKE!The pause for reflection on where your life journey has taken you, combined  with the Dr. Seuss thoughts of “OH the Places You’ll Go!”,  overlaid with the fantastic fantasy of being able to do whatever you want for an entire 24 hour period of time…pure bliss. I did say <em>fantasy</em>.In reality, your day starts with a 4am wake up call to your child having wet the bed followed later by a phone call from your brother who needs you to drive him around to find an apartment.   Since you love your son and don’t want your brother to be homeless you give up your fantasy of being able to do whatever you want and instead you do what Jesus said, lose your life that you may find it.  Take up your cross and follow Me”.    And that is what abundant life is all about anyway.</p>
