Swaziland has the world's lowest life expectancy, at 33.2 years. I am already past that age. It is weird to think that in the sleepy little kingdom of Swaziland, I am an old woman.
This young girl is 13 years old. According to statistics, she has twenty years left. I hope she defies statistics, as she has so much to offer the world. They all do. How many future contributions to mankind have been lost, swallowed up in the AIDS pandemic?
It is strange to think that Jesus also died at age 33.

God bless your efforts and we will see you Friday... wow!
