worrying...

This morning, the first Bible verse I read was 1 Peter 5:7. I still had tiny bit of worry in me. Went off about my day's business...worry abit worry develops wings and flies...but comes back several times. I had to take a mini (well traffic no gree make im mini) journey during the day... still abit of worrying tho about "my issues" and I saw a guy covered with warts one of my buses...head, face, hands. "Can my worrying help me positively in anyway?" My Thots I said a prayer or two Healing for the guy Help for my issues Moved on, came across a london freak speaking to himself "Lord have mercy" My Thots Then this night on the bus home...just needing my bed as it drizzles... I see a lady, her head resting on the bus window, half asleep I remember that verse. Dear Lord,I get so preoccupied with myself often times. There I go thinking about me me me. Help me learn to look away from me more times and seek to intercede for others

ah ha a feel moment

So last friday i was on my way out to the other side of town and i needed to top up my oyster card. I headed to baker street station and while i was trying not to bump into anyone (rush hour) some nice dude waited for me to cross his path. There i was "in my element... lost in thought" looked up in my mind: I know this guy ahhhhaaaaa on my face: quick smile, nods thanks, head back down, eyes on the walk way in my mind: gosh i know that guy! other side of my mind: my friend! top up and catch the bus and i pondered and pondered till saturday morning....then ah ha! "this guy" happened to be Adetomiwa Edun who plays the character Sir Elyan in bbc's Merlin series. i picked up watching Merlin earlier this year when i saw a couple of episodes at one really nice Aunt's house. omd! he's smaller in person... all the same i should have done what regular people do...err take a picture or something. :) ps: say a prayer for at least 3 different countries everyday in t...

one day in the past

After this post y'all *say it with an american southern accent* ok may be not all, someone may think he/she knows me... It's tuesday morning, cafe (pronounced caff)menu is bread, boiled egg and *weak tea* well they don't actually call it weak, and it isn't tea...it is bournvita or may be milo or be pronto. Girls' dorm is bustling with noise, bathing, bucket filling and carrying *if there is water, most girls fill their buckets the night before* ironing... yea we were proud of the short (well mine was always),blue and white striped uniforms we wore. I had my favourite, it was a round neck gown with pockets on both sides and rested well above my knees. "I'm opening sardine" I say to my roommate "Good I'll open baked beans" she replies...heinz, you know the deal. Other preparations continue as we get ready for the day. 6.45am "gba! gba! gba!" that is the sound of the padlock hitting some part of the door. Trust me you can hear it ...

thinking-ish

It's life... It's like a fabric, may be ankara fabric. It is colourful, sometimes beautiful as well. The patterns and the colours all bright. Sometimes it is not beautiful... Takes keep looking till you are drawn. The colours, dry and a drab. Plain plain plain till plain is deeper. That is life, a mix of fun times and not so fun times, happy times and not so happy times, smiles, thrills and laughter, frowns, cryings and wails... Keep looking into it and you learn your lesson. The fabric has two sides... And so does life
