Yesterday I turned THIRTY!
I finally hit my third decade of life.
Funny, I don't feel any older or wiser.
In fact I'm wondering where all the time has gone, why do I still feel like a child.
I grow more restless as time goes, I keep asking the same old questions about life, about God, about my place here in the world . . .
In college you can question everything because you don't have to worry about anything. When you graduate you skate for a while, enjoy the paycheck and new found responsibilities. But as you get older and these responsibilities continue to pile up the questioning begins again. Did I make the right decision, should I keep my job, should we move, what is the meaning of life and why don't I know the answer yet?
I had such a great b-day. My honey threw me a SURPRISE party. Usually I can tell when he's up to something, but boy he got me good. My friends too, they are sneaky and conspired with him the whole time!
So there are some things I can answer. I know who my partner for life is, my lover, dreamer and shoulder to cry on. I know that people appreciate me and love me, especially P.
I know that even though I am 30 I am the same old Bodle. And that's not so bad!

Happy Birthday! It sounds like you had a great time. Paul is a very good guy. I'm sure you'll figure out more answers to your questions as you go on (I haven't figured them out myself, so I am not much help) but if you know P is the one, your rock and your confidant, then that's a lot right there.
(I spent yesterday flying home from a conference, so you had a lot more fun than I did.) :)
So sorry that I missed you party! Happy 30th! It will be our best decade thus far. I can feel it. :)
Those are hard questions, but impotant. Many times, I think most of us continue to skate along because they are too hard to answer. Thanks for the reminder to keep asking. :)
Love you tons,
KR
