All of my friends were just getting married, or having babies, and here I was, an old lady. So I told him that say that before I turned 30, I had to do something really crazy to prove to myself that I was still young and fun.

->->->->->->->-> fast forward 4 years and 51 weeks...

The week before my 30th birthday, My husband said "remember your 25th birthday, when you cried". Until he mentioned it, I hadn't. He said "you said you wanted to do something REALLY crazy, well you are going to".
My response was, "But I changed my mind about getting a tatoo!"
His response was, "it's not a tatoo"

IF YOU WANNA KNOW WHAT IT WAS, CHECK MY AVATAR!


Thankfully, I grew up and realized that I am not old (eventhough I am almost 10 years older than the birthday when I cried), I am enjoying life, and I have to say THESE are the best years so far, but I am looking forward to many more great ones to come.

It wasn't anything like I imagined. I thought it was going to be an adreniline rush (like a roller coaster), instead it was the most peaceful thing I have ever done. Well the one minute free fall was intense, but after the 'chute was pulled it was like flying, no sound... Just quiet scenery. Fantastic!!! I would do it again in a heartbeat!

Bro. Berkeley,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! Yes, the best is yet to come. You are not waiting until
the end of your years to regret the "wasted" years. Sitting up late to read
the Word of God and then to be thankful for the good 26 yrs. He has already
given you. That's a very good way to start the next 26, Bro. Berkeley!


Proverbs 3:5-7:

"Trust in the LORD with ALL your heart and lean not unto thine own under-
standing. In ALL thy ways acknowledge Him and He WILL direct thy path.
"Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil"

May you be led by the Spirit all the days of your life.

Blessings,

Falla39
