My dear, dear, friend. And his gift to me!

...Omonoba...

Our people say:
Igbo: Agadi nwanyị kawa nka, ọ dị ka ejighi ego lụ ya, 
Eng: when a woman gets old, she appears as if there was no bride price paid on her. - Igbo Proverb

This is an interesting week; I have blogged three days in a row!

So, I just received an iPod touch from my friend. I am so thrilled. He had mentioned that he wanted to get me an iPod touch for my birthday and had even asked for what I wanted inscribed on it. But, of course like many other jokes we crack with each other, I had dismissed it. But I had even forgotten that he knew my brother's mailing address. And my birthday was a month ago.

So, today, my brother (who receives ALL my deliveries) brought the touch to me on my way out of class. I was so excited and I am very thankful.

thanks a million friend. You know that this as much as I appreciate this, it is not your most important gift. OUR FRIENDSHIP IS!

The inscription says:
 I LIVE FOR JESUS...Rom 1:16.
(First Name) Unashamed (Last Name)

That's my favourite Bible verse and my mantra. 
Bless your heart, my dear friend!
