Recovery and bouncing back....

The tonne of bricks did fall, but i am up and about again. The book of ecclesiast helped me here.

i resigned to the fact that everyone goes through different phases in his or her life. This dear person is going through this phase and i should just pray that there is restoration for him and he be made whole again. God to heal him and he to know and experience God's love in this trying time.

Trying to understand the reason to describe the feeling of an avalanche of tonne of bricks was firstly because it was unexpected and a shock, and secondly my selfish desires to want this friend to be where he normally is. The predictable days and food he so laboriously prepares week after week, the beautiful way he carves the strawberries. The wonders and love he dotes on the patients,his caring ways, it is indeed a struggle not to love him. Everyone adores him.

I do get up now and i thank God for giving me the peace, the wisdom to know that there are people and phases that will come and go in our lives. Not to focus on ourselves but just to think and bless every man we cross paths with.

May His face shine upon you my friend, may God restore your sight back and even better. may He comfort you at times when you should feel down trodden and alone. May God continue to persevere to give you the attitude of acceptance and take everything in your stride. May God extend grace and grant you salvation.........This blog is specially for you.......my dear dear friend.
