Birthday Eve
Tomorrow I will be 39 years old. Not too old but not that young either. Still I am alive though with a j stent inserted in my right kidney to be removed or changed this coming May depending on the performanc of this organ - whether it improved or deteriorated.
Tomorrow will also be the last day of my self imposed deadline for Phase I of my Save a Kidney, Save a Family Fund raising program. And so far I have raised not enough money for the scheduled removal or change of this j stent.
But still I am hopeful.
Though I got only a few thousands right now, I also have some pledges to depend upon. And these are not mere pledges I know because they came from people who really care and are really aware of and concerned about the other people’s needs.
Being 39 is great! One more year and I will be starting to LIVE! Remember that life begins at 40!
But I sure hope to start living right now. I have a family to take care of and I have a future to be concerned about. Not only my futrue though - it is the future of others also!
Why?
Because everyone lives for everyone else. As the song goes, "walang sino man ang nabubuhay para sa sarili lamang"!
Alright so being 39 is great and it will still be greater if I would be able to accomplish this small misison that God has in store for me - and us all!
So when my birthday comes, please remember to pray for me and for us all.
God bless and may we have a better world in the Lord.
