I found this beautiful painting on the web site of an artist named Laurel Sherry today. It reminds me of the lake where I spent my summers when I was a kid. I can almost smell those water lilies!

Which reminds me -- it is nearly midsummer and I don't know how that happened because it was just New Years. This year has gone so fast for me.

One thing I look forward to in the summer now is a series of events at the Church of Scientology of San Diego. Actually, all Scientology churches have these events and they are originally recorded aboard the Freewinds, a Scientology retreat in the Caribbean. I look forward to David Miscavige's speeches. Mr. Miscavige speaks at each of the events and usually shares news about the grown of the Scientology religion and activities Scientologists are involved in all over the world. It makes you really feel part of a religious movement that's making a difference.
