The glory of the young is their strength

it was a really nice evening prayer when there was a testimony from a 93 years old lady about her faith. Br. Alois said that although herr age is old but she is very young at spirit. no time to write everything now, will continue later, (whenever is possible, which i dunno when)

what if...

What will you do if you only have 3 more months to live?
yesterday I heard my college friend was diagnosed with a 4th stage liver cancer and the doctor tod him that he only have 3 more months to live...

Wasp

I got stung by a wasp (a meaner n way more aggressive type of a bee) yesterday afternoon on my neck...
had to hold a huge ice cube for 3 hours (including in the evening prayer)... and in this small communtity everyone was making a fuss out of it.. too much I guess..

Community

in this small community, everyone will know everything...
even the smallest thing that happened ....
news are spreading very fast..
luckily, this community life is based on trust and love..
sssttt.....

Fourth week, the Summer week

This is the start of the fourth week...
This week I'm responsible with the big kitchen coordination and visitor's welcome
It means that in the morning I'll be going back and forth to and from the kitchen with loads of stuffs. Hope the team will be great. I never do this before though, so I don't know what's gonna happen... surely be fun, or better said, lets make it fun! yeaah....
in the afternoon I'll be welcoming people who only come to Taize for one or two days... not sure what and how to do this though but hospitality is the priority here I guess..
I'm glad that I don't have any jobs in the evening, but probably I will try to help the church team since I know I'll have much responsibilities to come in the church.. better learn from now on since summer is always different than other weeks.. but off course if I'm tired I think I will give more time rest, or read, or write, or to reflect and do some ponderingss  hehe

Ow, today I fiinally worked in the afternoon and will have meetings for next week shortly. Yesterday was a very packed day though... can't even breath even for a while... Olinda the whole day, kitchen training after lunch and 3 consecutive meetings in the afternoon and back night guarding Olinda..
but so far I loved it and can't wait for this week!

Right Place and Track

This morning I had another inspiration or confirmation that I'm at the right place. Doing and learning all this stuf is what I used to do @ BW but way in a smaller level and I'm quite sure that what I'm doing here at the moment is for the future of BW too.. organizing (or be part of) a neverending retreat, coordinating this and that with large numbers of participants, how to be attentive to them, how too empower and mobilize volunteers... this is part of what I'll be doing in  BW, whatever the future might be...or no matter what I'll become... so yea, again... I beieve I'm on the right track  

Give and Receive

the Be and the Do

inspiration

...

The air is filled with love
as my mind and heart swings together in joy
Peace filled the sanctuary of my heart
for nothing can fathom his love and mercy
as the greatest gift off all...
I am happier and happier here
and I wish I can share everything that I experience here with you
coz I miss you every single day
hope you're as happy as I am
Or even more, happier than me here..
