Hello, I have arrived in honduras just fine, it is beautiful down here. nice and warm. it is about 80-85 degrees I would say. Today was our flight, we had a connection in Houston. arrived in Roatan 1:15PM. it took until nearly 2:30 to get our bags and get to the Inn of last resort. I took a swim, since this is our only off day. Sunday we will vist some people. and Monday off to the CSI site. We are on the North west side of the island, there is only one road that leads to the west from the Airport (first it goes north), very near the end of the road on the west side you will find two small bays near each other (Gibson's Bight), that should be where the INN is located.

If I don't do the things my Father does, well and good; don't believe me. But if I am doing them, put aside for a moment what you hear me say about myself and just take the evidence of the actions that are right before your eyes. Take time today to read of the things that Jesus did and see for yourself, are they one and the same as God. Today I pray that move closer to your maker.

Don't they realize what that is saying about them? I will try and put people in boxes, usually below me. Or at least that is what I believe at the time. I know some people that are much better at this (NOT being judgmental) then I am. I am trying to avoid those conversations at work, the rumors, the gossip, the competition that I play in my head. I always find it interesting that the story states that the older people left first...and as I get older I find that it is easier to be less judgmental. I calculate that I may only need to live to be about 200 to completely remove this from my system. I have also noticed today that people can see me, I mean I am generally invisible in many situations, but today I walked a route that I have many times prior, and in those times people rarely acknowledge me. To...
