nov42007, sometime before lunch, i got scorched... while somebody's enjoying the baked mac i cooked, i was wincing in pain... i won't be working for a while... i'll be in recluse for weeks... 1st thought was this is part of God's plan for me... 2nd thought, i have time for my tree sketches and reading and my course study... 2nd&1/2 thought, will there be scars? 3rd thought, i won't be of use for a while. 3rd&1/2 thought, won't be online for at least a week... but, here i am now... the pain has eased, so i can at least blog about this to mark the day... i told my kins and friends that i look like a sunburned cat.... but i know the wounds will heal and hopefully leave no mark... what i do wish is not to miss the lesson i am to learn in this experience... i know it's not just being careful in lighting the oven next time... there is something more... deeper than the burns.. change is definitely here! i'll qoute the poem i read sometime ago... "and you are in no more in control than a feather is off the wind. all you know is that the force moving you is strong that you just hang in wonder." okay! so i'm a feather in the wind... currently burnt on the edges, but knowing me... i'm bound to find something hopeful in all this...
