Bike Riding This is a picture of yours truly taken today or a month before my world came to and end then began again. I have absolutely no idea what is happening in my life but the power that watches over me is full of Love. In many ways I feel like I’m just taking my first baby steps away from my mommy across the great void to my daddy who is wise enough to let me fall and pick myself back up and keep heading towards His open arms.   Today was great as I ate a wonderful German style breakfast after which I rode my bike that seems to have been with me all my life. Out of the din of the city I rose up into the higher altitudes of the mountains like a bird seeking a peaceful place to rest. After 40 minutes of high altitude climbing I levels off and wound up at a bike shop that was totally equipped to transform my bike into a device of safety with new brakes, seat and a warning flasher on the back.   It was a wonderful experience to be riding in the peace of the upper altitudes of the mountain looking down on the small city where I some how happen to be sleeping at night. I met a wonder new friend who spoke English well and he invited me to join a bike club so everyone can ride in a group and not be alone. I’m never alone because my Father is always with me. Going up into the mountains out of the city make me feel less alone.   I ate a good supper and began my trek back to the highway that travels above the city.  I was trying to plot a course to take every day to get to the school to teach. I finally found a straight road that took me to the exercise group where I could top of my bike ride with several repetitions on the upper body building machine which is among many other devices in the park. I’m bushed and that was the goal for today to be completely exhausted so I can sleep well. Wow, what happened? I feel like I am waking from a coma that has been 10 years long. I’m not sure if I will make it or not but for now it is an actual target that I’m preparing to go back to. To return in a graceful manner may take the 313 days I have left as of September 21, 2008.
