Have you ever sat in a diner or on a window sill and gaze at the many faces that pass by? We may be drawn to interesting sights, traffic, unusual sights-but faces? Why would we want to look at faces? Because faces reflect the real story of the land. Each face is a reflection of a journey each passerby is enduring.
On my recent trip to Myanmar, I looked at the faces from my hotel room window and they were content. I saw faces of patience. I saw lines and expressions of resilence etched in their expressions.
Content? Patient? Resilent? After all that has happened in that country? it was a lesson for me- and a lesson for all who run our race with greed motivating us. In this simple land, despite the obstacles faced, people have learnt to live one day at a time. They make the most of each day, as the gods have blessed them with. Isn't that a glorious lesson for us to be with inspired with? Live each day with contentment, because we have been blessed; live each day with patience because the day has only just begun and there is more to come; live each day with resilence, because yesterday was successful and we made it through another day.
Live each day......
SELAH
