FRUIT is on my mind this morning, thanks to doug. (see his comment in yesterday's post) fruit, function, definition, blah, blah, blah. where is our fruit? share it, please. but birthday parties are also on my mind. the afore-mentioned doug's mother-in-law, sandie, is having a 50th birthday party tonight, and it's a life well worth celebrating. hooplah! happy birthday, mrs. brock! the third thing on my mind is an npr story i heard this morning about the u.n. rwandan tribunals that are currently taking place in tanzania. three men who ran a radio station are looking at life in prison because, apparently, their radio killed people. i don't know a lot about it yet, but it brings up a lot of issues about freedom of the press, propaganda, etc. the really big thing about the story for me, though, is that my friend beth is actually interning at the tribunals right now. i know such amazing people! i llived with beth in india, and she's one of those girls who knows how to live incarnationally. so, see - it all circles around! ;-) lots to think about today.
