Well, its a great time having all my family here. Getting my tracks for my English class passed out. It's still the rainy season in Japan. The church here is doing great. They are getting ready for their youth camp coming up. Thank you for all your prayers and support.

   Happiness

To be glad of life, because it gives you the chance to love and to work and to play and to look up at the stars; to be satisfied with your possessions, but not contented with yourself until you have made  the best of them; to despise nothing in the world except falsehood and meanness, and to fear nothing except cowardice; to be governed by your admirations rather than by your disgusts; to covet nothing that is your neighbor's except his kindness of heart and gentleness of manners; to think seldom of your enemies, often of your friends, and every day of Christ; and to spend as much time as you can, with body and with spirit, in God's out-of-doors--these are little guideposts on the footpath to peace.      ---Henry Van Dyke
