The 29nth Anniversary of being Baha'i

Today is the first day of Kamal. It is also the first day of August. This Baha'i Year has gone real fast.I was in the hospital a few months ago. I experienced the same problem ten years ago at the same time. Twenty nine years ago I declared myself a Baha'i at John and Susan Mead's at 109 Drew Road. This is the only time of the year where the Gregorian Calendar and the Badi Calendar coincide.This is one of the major reasons the term Cortaca Baha'i evolved. Thirty years ago I discovered the Baha'i Faith in Cortland, twenty nine years ago I declared myself a Baha'i . At the time I joined the Baha'i Faith John wasn't a Baha'i even though I thought he was one.Sue said Baha'i Prayers and eventually he declared himself a Baha'i about two years latter. One of the other blogs here is titled:The Meads of Eternal Holiness.It is that time of the year where I'm preparing next years calendar. Cindy Escoba and I have been quoting Sir Ralph Waldo Emerson. I mentioned Cindy in my last blog. Cindy is a very good """"FRIEND""""".Ralph Waldo Emerson is a very important link in history,especially when viewing his concepts about fate:"THE BEST USE OF FATE IS TO BRING OUR CONDUCT TO THE LOFTINESS OF NATURE. Ala or Loftiness is the last month of the Badi Calendar.Sir Ralph Waldo Emerson,as Cindy calls him corresponds in idea with the Z Note of Traveller's Narrative and the Menok-I-Khrat. Sir Ralph Waldo Emerson's ideas about fate and liberty corresponds with the writings of Robert Charles Zaehner.
