I am now a godparent. There is a little bundle of joy that's been brought forth into the world, and I am responsible for its spiritual well-being.
Does this scare the pants off anyone else?
I suppose I'd better stop referring to it as my Godthing now, and start calling it by name. Or at least the correct gender. It's a boy.
Once I stop being flippant and actually consider everything, I'm struck by awe. My friends have brought a new being into the world. Wow. That's just fucking spectacular.
So here's to Daniel Xavier Hae-Myong Hearnshaw. (Hope I spelt all that right.) And, of course, here's to his parents.
