parables in my life

hmmmm....for almost three weeks i wasn't able to write anything here...i was busy...too busy that i almost forgot i need to be alive...

of course, there had been times i felt i was too exhausted to move...those were days i almost forgot my need to really live...

guess, it is something the Lord has reminded me over and over again...

how has my life been for the past weeks...incredibly exciting, exhilirating and exhausting...

it;s not because of the hard work and the difficult tasks that i became tired...i became tired because i felt i was alone...and indeed i was...

moments of reflection and meditation brought to me several pictures of the beauty of being alive...a spider hanging on a thread of its web...a dewdrop hanging at the tip of the leaf...birds carefully picking up leaves for their nests...a widmill, so still yet flexible...

there were moments when i almost forgot to live...but then, there were also moments that encouraged me to go on..and enjoy life...they are just threads of hope in my life...threads that allowed me to see life differently again...i might write the details later on.

for now, i'm just glad to have written these thoughts...
