Contemplating over a cup of coffee....
Seems that the start of the year has been peppered with pain and turmoil whether man made, from forces of nature or just plain bad luck...
While it has mostly affected strangers on the other side of the world, some of these have affected people I know and love...
It makes me wish that I could do something to help, but for the most parts, it's out of my hands. If only I could take the pain and replace it with joy, take the fear and replace it with the blissful ignorance of never having gone through such misfortune,....and stop bloody earthquakes/ tsunamis/ nuclear meltdowns.
Pensive, and feeling helpless,
J
PS/ Gomen. Food posts will follow shortly.

At times like this, the Serenity Prayer helps me:
ReplyDelete"God/Please grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference."
Or this:
"This, too, shall pass."
I shall try that. :) Thanks...
ReplyDelete(*sigh* Just wish that I could do more to help, you know? But there probably is no way that I can stop those bloody tectonic plates... )
no need feel pensive. we share our thoughts with those affected while downing some cold beverages before a zombie holocaust hits us!
