I feel like I have been reborn. My back is still slightly stiff, but no more night sweats and fatigue. I haven't even had coffee today and I feel wide-eyed and bushy tailed!
I am in my library office. I even made it early to church this morning.
And lo and behold, my bus driver was HFKAR! I hadn't seen him in over two weeks, since I injured my back. No texts from him either. I assumed he had flown south for the winter, the thrill was gone or both.
Well, it turns out he has also been sick.
The thrill is also gone. LOL. We had a polite bus driver/rider conversation. You know, about the protests downtown and our aches and pains. It was like this summer never happened.
And I am fine with that!
He did give me a free bus pass though.
Church was nice this morning. I was clear headed enough to pay attention to the sermon. The pastor even talked a bit about the current state of our nation and our president elect. He compared him to King Nebuchadnezzar II. Apparently he was a tyrant. The people hated him and protested back then too!
But amazingly, this brutal king was humbled and saved by God. Became a believer.
Our pastor said something that really resonated with me:
"Our job is to pray for our rulers whether we like them or not".
He said a lot more profound and intelligent things as usual. But that stuck out for me. I do pray for our leaders. I am now praying for Donald Trump and his family.
I am distancing myself from Facebook, because it is on fire. So many opinions. So many tempers flaring. And honestly, these days it is hard to discern the truth.
So I am praising God for my restored health. Retreating to my simple life. And returning to the gym tomorrow!
My plan today is to stop somewhere for lunch, then go to the grocery store. I need beef, green onions and kim chi. I am making bulgogi beef for bibimbop for dinner.
And I am excited about that!
When the going gets tough, the tough makes bebimbop!
Happy Sunday!
