And I think to myself...what a wonderful world!

Perhaps it is because I've been away from my family for six months...but I weep easy these days. I was just looking over some old pictures of our family and did the afore mentioned.

When I see my children, and how they grow, I weep at G-d's crazy grace.
When I smell the summer heat, I've learned to settle down thank Him for life.
When I notice the birds (they ever faithful)I weep for joy at the expanse of His Earth.
When I look at my wife I know in the closest way His Great Faithfulness.

I'm just a little cell, but what an honor I have to be able take part in the great stream of life.

Attention: The future is here now.

Does anybody remember a really sweet (at least it was really sweet when I was 14) movie called The Net? Well, it's about how technology, more speciffically, the interNET is so intertwined that somebodies (Saundra Bullock's) identity could be entirely erased....or something. Anyway, in the begining of the movie it shows the heroine ordering a pizza on the internet.

Ah-hem.

Emily and I order TWO pizzas on the internet last night. It was amazing. As soon as I sent it in, it told me that some girl named Casandra had started hand tossing our pizza.

So, in case you were wondering when it would get here, Emily and I just ushered in the future.

In reference to the previous...

Thank you for the encouragments. Im glad that I am real.

When I was young, I used to be terrified that I was a robot from space, and that some preset date, I would "switch over" from being Nathanael Ben David to killer robot boy from space and...yes...slay my family. Eh-hem...as severely disturbing as this probably is...I think it was from watching Star Trek so much...

Don't worry mom and dad, even though my young brain was tormented by this paranoia...I think the "benefits" watching star trek as a young child has given me far outweighs the "issues"

And that preset date is far expired so nobody needs to worry.

Boy, I'm glad I turned out real, even if its depressing sometimes.
