Now old, but "blessed with youth"
Well, the 40th birthday came and went. Thanks to Pauline for the surprise party. And for providing just about the biggest birthday cake I have ever seen. :-)
My daughters are calling me "officially old", now. However at Baroque Ensemble practice last week I mentioned my upcoming birthday to one of the other choir members (a ~30 year old woman), and she said "No way! You can't be turning 40! You've certainly been blessed with youth!" :-)

Card on "faith vs knowledge"
I thought this was an interesting essay about the nature of knowledge, and how it relates to faith. By author Orson Scott Card.
