Baha'is are meeting all over the world in conferences sponsored by the top administrative body of the Baha'i Faith, the Universal House of Justice. One is here in Portland only about 3 hours [the way we drove] from where we live. After reading accounts of so many people all over the world sacrificing and traveling so far to be at the conferences, I feel privileged and a little guilty for this to be so easy. I don't know what to expect, but when Baha'is gather from various parts it tends to be like a huge family reunion.
We are staying at the Doubletree at Lloyd Center [momentary thought: I wonder if my friend Loyd is here? Probably working.] Didn't get here until about 11 PM. The registration starts at 7:30. Although we are pre-registered, I'd like to get there on time. So why am I up at 12:44 at night?
