And then
We never know what the next moment will bring.
We often anticipate but we are never sure.
I expect to post this little reflection on the web within the next one minute,
but between now and then anything may happen.
I could for example get an idea that prolongs this reflection to one hour.
Don't worry, I won't make it too long.
I just post it.

Reflection 17 (carrying)
Carrying
"Papa, I want to be carried"
My five-year-old used to ask.
That was when he was five years old.
Now he is 18 and no way, I could carry him.
I have enjoyed each time I carried my children.
I regret each time I have refused to carry them...

Reflection 16 (insight)
Perfect insight
If we would get today, through a magic wand, complete and full and perfect insight on how we have lived in the past ten years:
How many people we have affected positively, how many negatively, how many smiles, how many tears we caused, how many good things we supported, how many not so good things, how many times we thought through our actions, how many times we followed blindly, how many times we condemned, how many times we praised, how many times we complained,, how many times we were grateful,.....
Would the balance be giving you a smile, or a frown?
Perhaps difficult to answer, because none of us have this perfect insight right now.
But still a question to ponder
Still a question to guide our tomorrows.
