VISUAL IMPERFECTIONS



In the process of conception of dreams, the point of fertilization is most vital; the rooting together of the basic elements that add flavor to our life aspirations. However, birth in itself isn’t defined solely by fertilization. A host of other factors contribute to the making of our dreams and realization of our visions- and as the process becomes more and more elongated, focus diminishes in a progressive fashion, almost perfectly plotted against time.
Even when all we have is relatively insignificant- especially in our own eyes and when it seems to be totally irrelevant to our obvious needs; let us place our trust in the Lord to lead our steps and to guide our paths.
We could ask, why exactly did the widow (1 Kings4) have a jar of oil? It seemed conspicuously irrelevant to her and not until Elisha pointed her to it did she know the inherent potential of that jar of oil.
In life, it becomes very easy after a while to lose respect for our special capabilities, for our talents, our hopes and dreams. We begin to then tread primrose paths which in themselves lead nowhere. After a while, we are all but lost in the fog of time and the only thing that can bring us out of that misty gathering is a re-awakening…a re-pointer to whom we are and what we have.
Some of us might be short-sighted, some long-sighted, some astigmatic; but at those moments when it seems really really easy to throw away the dreams of yesterday in the thrash can of today; let us remember: Yesterday’s pot of oil might have been sent to deliver us from the debts of today.
Respect your dreams; they define you!

LABOURING: IN THE PROCESS OF DREAM BIRTHING (2)

Labour/ birthing of dreams has three main phases, to view the 1st Stage and what it is correlated with, please check LABOURING: IN THE PROCESS OF DREAM BIRTHING . Thank you. STAGE 2: This is the stage of labour that begins from the full dilatation of the cervical os (10cm) till the baby is delivered. It is extrapolated with diligently seeking your dream and getting it.  These are called the (iv) Seeking stage (v) Getting stage     Phase 1 (SEEKING STAGE): It begins from the full dilatation of the cervical os till the leading part of the fetus is on the pelvic floor. It is often marked by an irresistible urge of the mother to push and in regards to the birthing of a dream; the tenacity of the dreamer concerning the dream. (S)He keeps pushing till it is realized. IT IS THE "I SOUGHT IT STAGE". When normal, this phase is characterized by: ·          Strong contractions ·        ...

#MONDAY’S PROSE THIS CHILD; ON THE ROAD

Through my myopic eyes, a fleeting image of a little boy is formed on my retina A little boy in a little suit, Treading the familiar bushy routes before him The boy had neither escort nor directives And surely, he needed none For a 4 yr old on the road possesses more maturity than a 10 year old in ‘comfort’ Swiftly, she navigated through cars held in traffic An adventurous smile tugging at her split lips Providing snacks for impatient car-owners And though panting from car-chasing, She had a visible life of passionate content She probably planned to get off the street, Forsake her hypothetical ‘street-urchin boyfriend’, Give up this demeaning way of living, But I feared she wouldn’t! She hadn’t been wired to get off the street And sadly, she was too content to stage a forced exit. Children on the road and teenagers of the road, Not choosing to be this vulnerable Yet hooded and shrouded in the cold, Filled with shreds of hope that the fut...

LIKE FAITH AND LOVE

Gal 5:6 - For [if we are] in Christ Jesus, neither circumcision nor uncircumcision counts for anything, but only faith activated and energized and expressed and working through love. The heart and the lungs are like faith and love, their functions intertwined, their locations proximate, the feelings that they generate just as conclusive. They produce hope for the survival of the physical body, just like faith and love produce hope for the spiritual body’s survival. Experiences of today made me realize something: we need faith intertwined with love to breathe as spirit beings, as much as we need the functional capacity of our cardio-respiratory apparatuses to breathe the breath of life. It’s that important…faith and love I mean.
