Thursday, January 26, 2006 @ 8:33 pm hi! today, there was a bright n windy evening. the wind was blowing very strongly into my bedroom window. it was perfect. i'm glad i reached home early. so, i sat on my chair facing the open window n embracing the strong wind. then, i couldn't stand it n decided to go downstairs to feel it all while reading God's Word n spending time wid Him. it was nice. chose a different spot; sumthing different n new. sat on a place where i can feel the wind blowing on my left. dun worry, it wasn't a distraction. in fact, it jus brings me back to thanking Him for giving us wind, His creation. n it reminds me of times where i spend by the beaches. yup.
in the early part of my quiet time, while tryin to get use to not getting distracted by the things arnd me, i was an old couple. i had seen them many times already. nth new. they would always take walks arnd tat time n walk arnd the condo together. sumtimes, they would stop on the bridge in front of the waterfall in my condo. but eveytime i looked at them, they ain't holding hands but i can see they're happy. they are very very old. the man looks really haggard. the woman is rather short. both of them can be my grandparents; tat kinda age. den today, while they were goin up a staircase which is within my sight, i saw the husband "holding" out his arm, inviting the wife to hold the hand. initially, i tot it was nth but then, i saw the wife trying to hold the hand. being old, naturally, they missed as they couldn't grasp each other's hands but eventually, they managed to. i'm lucky enuff to see that moment. it was nice. it was a really heart-touching scene. there n then, i told God tat i really hope the man-to-be (if God has it in His plan) would be tat loving to me too. tat he'll still love me tat much even when i turn 50 n become so old n all. the kinda love tat was shared btw tat two couple really touches my heart. it serves as a good reminder to me. not to always look at the outer appearance when the guy is 20 plus 30, but to always imagine him in the 50s n picture if i would still love him tat much---shifts the focus frm physical appearance to inner character. it's the inner character of the person tat will compel love to hold on 20 or 30 yrs down the road. good reminder. thank you Lord. N thanks for the good weather n bright sunlight tat lasted even till 7pm! so i can read the book n spend time talking to You! --------------------------------- |
