as i was walking to the bus stop after a quite long day at work (7AM till 8PM - 13 hours...), i raised my head to watch the birds that painted invisible intricate ornaments on the blue sky.
the Sun was setting already and the buildings were basking in the golden light. but that wasn't what drew my attention.
as i watched the birds and actually told God that i envy their ability to fly high above everything, i saw a reflection of the dying sunshine on one of the birds' wings! i blinked, not sure that i have seen what i have seen. continuing my leisury walk to the bus stop, i looked at other birds as they flew... and realized that that one-moment reflection was not a trick on my eyes. it was real - the birds were dark-feathered, and so the sunlight was reflected in their wings and sides.
wow...
live and learn, someone smart once said, and i totally agree with him / her. i love noticing new things around me every day. noticing new traits of my friends and aquaintances. learning the quirks of how the nature works. studying html which is still much of a dark forest for me, even though i have learned quite a lot during this year at the Chamber.
live and learn. the saying is almost perfect, but i would still add two things. one is trust. lean on His knowledge, strength, care, love... "give all your troubles to the Lord, for He takes care of you," said Peter-the-apostle once. and although the phrase is about 2,000 years old, it's very true.
and love. love God, love people, love nature, love yourself. this life's all about love (even though we sometimes neglect it or are afraid of it... or stubbornly don't want to show it... and i am guilty of that)...
live, learn, lean, love.
