Welcome and thanks for reading my blog!
I hope and pray that my life explained online can be a walking testament to my relationship with the Lord and those He place in my life.

long time, no post

goodness, happy 2009!

its been forever since i written a blog.  mainly because i've been focused too much on work and all my activities after work, that when i get home i just sleep.

i've been sucking lately.  as a son, friend and boyfriend, ive been sucking a lot.  i just put out soo much effort in my daily work and all that i don't have anything to put out for everyone else in my life.  im starting to lose my grip on friendships and relationships, and its not good for me.  everything i look at, i look at the negative side when i used to be cheery and positive.  what has been going through my mind?  what have i been doing so wrong?

i need to get back into a healthy relationship with everyone, including God.  one where i am not dependent on my own strength or the strength of others.  

in other news, this whole trip to Ethiopia is totally looking more and more a reality!  today, i got my donation update and i'm already $400 towards my goal! im so pumped and thankful for all those that have received my letter and read my note on facebook! hopefully ill be planning my trip to PA to meet the team in person, rather than through Skype.

anyways, my eyes are burning and the netbook is finally starting to die.  i will update you all (all 3 of you) of my further adventures.  have a wonderful weekend!

Paolo, this is a great entry. Sometimes we all need reminders in our lives to nourish the relationships we have. I've failed at this many times (sadly), but like you, I'm trying to make time for the people I care about as well as God. I do hope that this means we'll see more of each other (and I'll see more of Tracy..hehehe). Well, I'm here for you if you need anything. And I'm happy that about the Ethiopia update!!!!
