Life is

The little now is a second right from eternity

 

Fancy flourishing flowing fragile fantastic

 

Sweet swirling sentient serenity safely saddled

 

Roaring rebellious raceattack ranking rather ridiculous

 

AAARRRGHH I just found out I can go go Google with the line: “words starting with F” ....had to give it a try!!

Love words, adore trying to play and arrange in different ways –sigh- I guess you folks know by now!

 

But better be behaving bee and...........

Greetings Gentlemen, go gag a glamorous grin  

 

Hmmmm what did I just type there...........wonders!!

Shalom in the rare and most beautiful Texas

 

I had an experience last week I like to share. I was visiting an elderly lady. You should know that the word lady is not common for us to use for a woman. This girl is different; I would for sure feel comfortable to use this word about her. She is a real lady.

 

Little fragile she seems, very fragile. But don’t fool yourself this girl, at the age of 91 years, not really any family left, not really any friends around planet earth.

 

Though, she is handling her day in a way that impresses me.

During the few years I been in this kind of work – there has been few periods she needed us to come more than usual – for instance a broken hip.

 

Slow and in a steadfast tempo – and she returned into her usually her.

 

When eating, she has difficulties in bite that is too huge, for instance she needs her bread sliced in thin manner. And the crust has to be cut.

 

She is born into a generation that was thought never to waste anything. The crust is very carefully put aside – it is for the birds you see.

 

Even she don’t have to, she is cooking her own dinner. Maybe I should tell you folks that in Denmark we usually almost always do our own cooking – for us it is way too expensive to eat at a restaurant – smiling for sure I remember the meals I experienced during the days I was privileged to visit your country gentlemen.

 

Elder people in society have an option though...........

But this lady at an age at some ninety years prefers to do her own meals. In times she can´t eat the whole meal she cooked. Something left – and this, what is left, she asks the one of us, if we will kindly take it to the garden. Here is a pot, placed for the very same purpose, and gentlemen, it is for the cats living in the neighborhood. Whether it is cats or hedgehogs that each her leftovers – not sure anyone knows, but for sure no matter how busy I am I am gladly going into the garden with the food.

 

As she are, a girl at a certain age..........

We had this talk.

The issue was death. And I asked if that worried her.

 

“I think yes a bit, you see I have no idea how to behave when this is to happen, I don’t know what it is like to die” she said

 

Hmm gentlemen, in times good advice can seem rather expensive.

 

You see, I am to calm her and for sure not create any worries through – her living in the world of Christianity - and that is long time I liked to call myself exactly that – a Christian.

 

I explained to her that she at any moment would not be alone

And she would calm and silent sleep right out from here

 

Well that was not exactly the how but the essence in our talk.

We are all here on temporary base

That is a part of being here at the wilderness

 

At first there is birth....

Then there is a certain period of learning...  

Final graduating into life...

¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤

Life can not die

¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤

 

Gentlemen in peace I bid you all

 

Deu 31:8 And the LORD, he it is that doth go before thee; he will be with thee, he will not fail thee, neither forsake thee: fear not, neither be dismayed.

 

Shabbat Shalom
