2 minutes ago a seaman friend messaged me that after having been declared fit to work for his appendectomy his company called him today that he won’t be rehired! His first time to go overseas, just had his first born before being repatriated and now jobless, away from family and relatives in Mindanao.
He had the dreams and plans. Earn a legit income. Be a good citizen and now… Now What?
How could life be so perplexing and unfair? “Life” as the man on the ground knows is never fair. You never get what you deserve. If ever you, really most of the time you had to break your back if not your nose to get it.
Caution
We only GET WHAT WE NEGOTIATE! Take it or leave it and make your day.
WAIT
That’s not the end of the story. LIFE as I know is a Person more than a Force an Essence or a Mantra. He is the WAY the TRUTH and the LIFE. We are not talking religion here mate coz for one I can’t make it by trying to impress or help GOD fix my life. Besides I have so much sea and salt in my mind I know I can never be “good. I’ll on the first shot will run to the powers and gods of this world and get a quick fix instead.
However Destiny rather Deuxteny had its way. We may never understand all of it. We can shout and be mad till we run out of air but still life will always be an enigma and a paradox at the same time. Easter has passed but we serve a Risen Savior. Nowadays when fake news has become the norm. When the mainstream may be tomorrow’s conspiracy I invite all to begin this day with a big thank you to the Father in Heaven. I did not wake up in a hospital in jail or in a mortuary, or even worse. My eyes opened and I can smell the coffee or what was that?
GOD when I realized we’re all just a passing through and marvel how mankind can always manage to make his life miserable, something must change.
Let’s begin today and say LORD THANK YOU FOR WHO YOU ARE.
And make me a blessing today
