39 And Holding

Yes, today I turned thirty-nine, and as much as I love me some Jerry Lee Lewis, a more appropriate birthday song for me is this one by Kris Kristofferson. This has been a tough year for me both financially and personally, but in spite of all of that, my blessings still outweigh my troubles. Many people would love to have the "troubles" I have. Thank you Lord.

Why me, Lord?
What have I ever done to deserve even one
Of the pleasures I've known
Lord, what did I ever do to deserve loving You
And the kindness You've shown
