I recieved this e-mail from my sister yesterday.

Hey,

Okay, so we went over to pray for the guesthouse at our partner's house and I had this really cool vision of the future. And I'm so excited about it. After we get the guesthouse set up and it starts earning a profit I'll be getting paid through it. And from that money I want to fund a project to take in the babies that get thrown out in the trash piles here. I had this vision of how it will grow most likely into something big. But yeah, I want to start small. And it'll be a lot of work. Cause I'll need to find a nurse and staff person to start with. I don't want to live at the house. I want to oversee it. So it has the potential to expand way outside of what I could take care of myself. I'll be sending out more details about it. But I just thought some of you would be interested and the others of you are my committed prayer team. So I definitely wanted to share with you before sharing with everyone. I probably won't write and update about it until after the guesthouse is up and running. People have a tendency to think I'm a bit insane and take on way too much stuff. But it's all God. So I don't really mind. I just want to be a bit cautious on how fast I tell everyone about it and all.

Love you guys.

And here I am worried about whether I'm going to be laid off or something, from a job that I hate and get no fulfillment from. You've got to love relativity.

Good luck to your sister Wavelength. I take it babies get thrown out in the trash piles often there?

Often enough I guess, I don't really know the statistics or anything. Many 3rd world countries don't have the resources to value life like we do. Actually, I think Kathmandu might qualify as 2nd world, though the rest of Nepal is pretty poor.

it could have been worse - you could have been worried about your challenge score...

That is perspective.

No matter how badly I think it goes I know I have it pretty good.
