One Life-reflection on 2019


All of us have just one life!

The temporal and the eternal are in continuity.

From the time we were formed at conception till now, we have been nurtured because of which we have grown!

Our growth is to bear fruits for others.

All of life is an expression of the abiding grace of God in our lives! 

Le me tell you the story of this fruit as told to me by a senior citizen.

This fruit belongs to the family of jack fruits. This fruit too has succulent and sweet pulp inside. There are multiple tiny seeds inside. These seeds when dried and roasted seem to have a unique taste. The outer thorny skin becomes manure. 

This senior citizen pointing to this fruit mentioned to me that , 'we can be like this fruit' in our attitude and relationships with others. Be unto others as they need us 

That was the new year message for me!

One life, One calling and One oppprtunity!
