FIFA World Cup

i can't believe it.

seriously.

shock has dug its claws into my 
flesh
and joy
erupts in my heart.

today i found out that my phase four bids were 
all accepted!

since none of my bids for the third round went through,
i was not hopeful at all.
but lo and behold!
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

for $60 i will be seeing
three games.
3 games!

and the best part is...
my birthday!
and my birthday is during the winter.
and i always wanted a 
cold birthday.

ahhhhhh the Lord is too good to me!!!

seriously...i am amazed at even being here for world cup.
last world cup i watched most of the games, the final,
with my dearest friend, jadie.
france and italy played in the final.
she is italian.
i love henry. i love france.
we're both deeply fierce and competitive.
we sat on separate chairs.
it took me about 30 minutes to speak to her
when the game was over.
hahahahahhaa
i was so mad at zidane.*
so mad.
it was awesome!

i'm going to a real world cup game.
not just one,
but three!
oooooooo praise the Lord! 
dream come true!!!

*though, i would have done much worse if someone called my mom and sister what materazzi did. but still! you don't lose it in the final moments of the biggest game of your life! mentally you have to be stronger. you have to train your mind. you don't do it....i could go on and on about the spiritual applications, but i'm sleepy. the point is, playing sports was one of the best things i ever did spiritually for myself. learning and realizing that if i was mentally tough i could face and beat any opponent, well....the application of that in the spirit realm is true too.....

  1. Do you know what I see when I look at this beautifully taken/posed shot????? Those hands, that big thumb that reminds me of Grandma Hilda and her gorgeous hands. Like your father before you...those precious hands Bekah May! Yeah yeah yeah the book is nice...blah blah blah-ha ha ha! I KNOW your cringing now, but I couldn't resist teasing you about your confounded book feddish, while I go all emotional over your hands. Alas...who will carry the midget pinky gene for me and my side of the Levi's(you know jeans/genes?) lol
