Each morning when I wake up, I feel enthused by the thought that it is a new day of many experiences awaiting!
There are days, when the inner spirit is cloudy with a weight !
That is how I felt today, since we discovered yesterday in the evening that the wall cupboard in the kitchen is partly damaged by white ants. The carpenter who came to inspect found a way to get it back into order.
The drooping rose flower was surrounded by three buds. That is how it is in nature. New life emerges all the time!
Yesterday two friends dropped in and engaged us in conversation of many happy memories. Although they could spend only short time as they were on their way for an engagement, they brought cheerful memories. Anna and I have known them from their student days and had regular contacts with their parents. So we share a history of about fifty years with them.
That meeting and conversation was a refreshing experience.
Those friends recalled our yesteryears and revived us with memories that were upbuilding.
One flower droops, but three others are there to blossom !
That is how it is in life. Our life is a continuum of new beginnings and awakening!
The journey is through peek and valley experiences, where the joy of living is an ongoing expereince !
We live in the present sandwiched between our past and future!
