July 23 and 24 were such painful days for me. I was so very upset. This year has been a year of shedding. My skin is being peeled off and I am.being taught to rely completely on the Lord. Hope I learn the art.
After having spent several sleepless nights, the fatigue was taking a toll on me. My sciatica was getting worse with more sleeplessness. I wanted to physically tire my body to see if sleep embraces me.
I left workplace and rambled around the one north area until I reached JP around 8pm. Even then I wanted to walk more. So I called up home to check if I can buy some Japanese desserts. I stopped by the mochi outlet - that's where my treasure for the day lay.
Two employees- both of them examplary of cheerfulness were spreading such cheer just by their presence. The dessert I had ordered was to be made fresh. I was asked to wait. I waited to only see more smiles and more cheers. It was such a joy to witness the fish shaped dessert being made from glutinous rice batter. More so was the cheerful camaraderie between the two girls. When I requested to take a pic of them, they refused. Yet, I got my energy for the day. Returned back home to a restful sleep.
Thank God for the little mercies!
Lots of love to the Lord and the universe.
