ALONG THE TRAIN OF LIFE, MAY, 2019

SHALOM/HELLO TO MY READERS:

MORE AND MORE, I AM REALIZING THE IMPERMANENCE IN LIFE. NOTHING IS FOREVER, NOTHING LASTS FOREVER. JUST AS THE LOVELY FLOWERS WITHER AND FADE AND DIE, AND AS ALL THE ANIMAL CREATURES DO, SO DO WE HUMAN BEINGS GROW, FLOURISH, WITHER, AND DIE. THAT IS THE SCHEME OF LIFE.

KNOWING THAT, WE REMEMBER KOHELET/PSALMS. TO EVERY THING THERE AS A SEASON. A TIME TO GROW, A TIME TO LIVE, A TIME TO SOAR, AND A TIME TO OUR END. THOSE OF US WHO LIFE WITH PAIN, ARE FORCED TO PAINFULLY BE SO AWARE OF OUR BODY AND MIND LIMITATIONS.

SO AS I OFTEN WRITE, LIVE THE MOMENT! BE HAPPY FOR TODAY, CELEBRATE THAT WE ARE STILL ON THIS PLANET EARTH! MAKE NOTE OF OUR HAPPY MOMENTS, OF OUR ATTACHMENT TO PEOPLE WE LOVE AND CARE ABOUT, TO BOOKS, TO MUSIC, TO MOVIES, TO WHATEVER IT IS THAT MAKE US SMILE ALONG THE WAY!

LET'S GO FOR IT! ENJOY WHAT WE CAN. EVEN THE 'HEALTHY' PEOPLE WILL HAVE TO GET OFF THE TRAIN OF LIFE AT SOME POINT. WE ARE GIVEN THIS OPPORTUNITY TO CHERISH WHAT WE HAVE RIGHT NOW, AT THIS MOMENT OF TIME.

SO LET'S LIVE AS BEST WE CAN. HOPEFULLY, WE WILL CONNECT AGAIN AT THE BEGINNING OF NEXT MONTH.

WISHING US ALL A GOOD MONTH, AND MANY OCCASIONS TO SMILE EVEN THO' THINGS ARE TOUGH.
YOURS,
CHW
