OT. Happy Sunday

Hi all!

Just wanted to say hello and share a happy day.

Today was my daughter's christening ceremony at the church and reception at
home. The church sermon today was so appropriate! Felt a spiritual
renewness.

Then the reception at home. Many exciting things took place, one that is
pertinent to this newsgroup was not only how people love my pond and Koi,
but that a friend that I made in this newsgroup shared the day with my
family! He brought his wife, daughter and parents.

We've become very good friends over the months even though we are both from
two extremely different race and culture. I felt so honored and humbled
that he will actually feel a oneness enough to bring his family including
his parents and daughter to our house. There is no greater honor than that
in my book. I feel so blessed to have you all as my friend and especially
to have him as my friend.

Good night all, I am on baby duty tonight!

This was nice to hear about. .... I have almost become knee jerk gagging
whenever I hear any reference to anything religious because of the way some
religious leaders have used religion for their own agenda in recent years.
It is nice to have it put in perspective of what it is really about.
Congratulations on the wonderful experience and day. Donna

But you're both ponders, where's the difference? There are only 2 types of
people, ponders and those who must be turned towards the water. ;o) ~ jan

PS. You did use pond water for the christening, right?

Of course we had to use pond water. I agree with you on not having any
difference, but I was just moved by the cacophony of colors watching my
friends of all colors and persuasion. That's all.
