A strand of web across the stem of the rose bushes starting at three 'o clock position on the right, is just visible. This photo was taken on a rainy day inner garden!
A small spider is active even in the rain! Although I could not find the spider hiding in the rose flowers, its earlier presence in the flowers was evident from this single strand of its web.
One gets carried away by the flowers. It happened to me once again while taking the above photograph. It was when the photos were downloaded, I was surprised by the sight.That was how I went back to inspect the flowers again!
The slender strand of a web stands alone silently amidst the rain! But it is held by the stems of the rose bushes!
The weak people among us, often not noticed, are present with us hoping to be held and carried! Their silence and invisible presence would call for attentive search to befriend them!
A family who telephoned me yesterday reminded me of this! The family is shocked by something unusual in their child, that calls for intense medical attention! The family is unsettled emotionally!
There are needs of others that we notice only by conscious awareness and attentiveness!
Many around us need to feel held and carried!
