"Truly, it is the indescribable sweetness of contemplation which you give to those who love you. In this you have shown the tenderness of your charity, that when I had no being you made me; and when I strayed away from you, you brought me back again to serve you and commanded me to love you." The Imitation of Christ

Happy Birthday To Me...
No blogging today (well, yesterday, actually, as it is now Sunday morning!) on account of it being my birthday and I was nowhere near a computer.
I did have a lovely day.
Since it is now way past my bedtime, I shan't go into details... as a last birthday "treat" I shall check my facebook messages, and then go to bed.
And, no. I have no intention of telling anyone how old I am.
Pooh looked on admiringly. "I'm just saying `A Happy Birthday'," said Owl carelessly. "It's a nice long one," said Pooh, very much impressed. "Well, actually, of course, I'm saying `A Very Happy Birthday with Love from Pooh'. Naturally it takes a good deal of pencil to say a long thing like that."
Happy Birthday, belatedly, and is that the cake you actually received? It's a great one! And perhaps we have to count the number of vegetables to find out your age ha ha!
No, that cake was one I swiped off Google Images... I don't think I could bear to eat all those vegetables, even in icing form... though if they'd been marzipan, I'd have wolfed the lot...
I picked that photo because anyone who knows me properly knows how much I loathe vegetables... and would therefore get the joke!
I know, I know... all the pictures seem to show him fallen off a horse. Maybe the artists assumed that a Roman citizen wouldn't be walking to Damascus.
But he certainly walked INTO Damascus, as his companions had to lead him by the hand... ;-)

Happy birthday, Mac - many more (however many it adds up to from wherever you are)!!! :-)
And did you get that gorgeous cake! ;-)
Oh, I'm sorry I missed it. Hope you had a great day - and I won't tell anyone how old you are...

Belated Happy Birthday
I'm glad you had a lovely day Mac. And as for St. Paul - I was sure there was a horse! But I checked and you're right - no horse.
Perhaps there used to be a horse when I was at school. Like Boudicca used to be Boadicea. What d'you reckon?

Happy belated Birthday, Mac.
Happy b-lated Birthday!
