Birthday Wishes

All the world is birthday cake, so take a piece, but not too much.
George Harrison

Today’s my birthday and I don’t have much time to write, but I just want to take all the birthday wishes I’ve gotten sent to me from the calls I’ve gotten to the FaceBook messages to heart, it feels great to be appreciated, BTW.

I had a great day with my family and if I could make 3 wishes I’d wish for:

1. I hope that people in Slave Lake bounce back from the fires. I was born in Alberta and it could just as easily been me in those shoes, so my wishes go out to the people, things can only go up.
2. I hope the people will make it through in Joplin, MS. I met a couple of bikers from Alabama earlier today and they had their homes lost to Mother Nature, but they took some of the insurance money and bought some Harley’s. I think they’ve bounced back pretty good.
3. And on the World scale, Japan was hit pretty hard earlier this year and I admire how they’ve made steps to get back on their feet, I’ve never had to endure anything of that magnitude or any other of the disasters mentioned, for that matter, so all I can do is just hope the best.
