From Fidel (b) - Bulgaria
1If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love, I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. 2If I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. 3And if I give all my possessions to feed the poor, and if I surrender my body to be burned, but do not have love, it profits me nothing. 4Love is patient, love is kind and is not jealous; love does not brag and is not arrogant, 5does not act unbecomingly; it does not seek its own, is not provoked, does not take into account a wrong suffered, 6does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; 7bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 8Love never fails; but if there are gifts of prophecy, they will be done away; if there are tongues, they will cease; if there is knowledge, it will be done away. 9For we know in part and we prophesy in part; 10but when the perfect comes, the partial will be done away. 11When I was a child, I used to speak like a child, think like a child, reason like a child; when I became a man, I did away with childish things. 12For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face; now I know in part, but then I will know fully just as I also have been fully known. 13But now faith, hope, love, abide these three; but the greatest of these is love. - 1 Corinthians 13

From Kara - Seattle
Hello Brian! Wow, Postcrossing says this is the 319,000th card sent from the USA. Haha! My name is Kara and I live in Seattle. I am 20 and in college to become a nurse. I think that what you are doing for your sister is awesome. I send out secrets on all my cards. My secret right now is that my heart is a little (or a lot) broken. I am in love with someone who is not in love with me. And I just can't let it go. I hope all your dreams come true in 2009. - Kara
From Robyn - Tasmania
When you visit Australia, you need to put Tasmania on your places to go list. It's only a small island state at the bootom of Australia, but so much to see and not far to travel. The west coast is is awesome nature at its best. Craolle Mtn. is like being in a cathedral, the air is so clean, just something about it. I've had 2 holidays there, love the place. I live in Sydney.- Robyn
