Midnight lightbulb

Always give. Give with a big heart. Never expect or hope for anything in return. The moment we start expecting, we always end up disappointed because the other person usually falls short. So give, give till there's nothing left to give, it's the lest one ought to demand from oneself.

The lion, the bear and the Unicorn

So this is how the story goes.....

In the final saga of this wonderful land, where the animals would talk to the humans; and a great lion leads them all to love, in faith and in courage.

In the last chapter of this great story, all of the lion's enemies have swept away his followers except for two, the bear and the Unicorn. They are trapped in a cave with the lion.

And because the entrance to this cave is narrow, the wave after wave of soldiers that the evil king sends in to try and kill them can't do it. The lion, the bear and the Unicorn, they fight them off.

So finally, the king sends in a messenger. He says, " look, the one that we really want, is the lion" "give him up and the rest of you will live, Ahh the Unicorn, we're going to cut his horn off, make him pull a cart for the rest of his life. The bear, we're going to put in chains and shackles, make him dance in the circus, but both of you will live, all you have to do is give up that lion".

Finally,  the lion looks at his friends with that look in his eyes, "what are you going to do??" And the bear and the Unicorn;they just smile.

And they say, " of all the deaths that we could have died, this right here is the one we would have chosen".

But the bear, and the lion and the Unicorn, they weren't looking for an easy road.

Jesus didn't when he accepted the cross, He didn't choose an easy death. So it's time to make a choice too. Never giving up on that lion.

Tipping point

A truth that humanity denies vehemently: we can change our dna traits.

Everything I thought special about myself, can be found somewhere in someone else in my bloodline. Who I am, how I think, what I feel, how I feel, my characteristics and my inborn nature to behave a certain way - it's all passed down.

Today I felt as though I relived that fateful night 6 years ago. For 6 years this has remained an unspoken secret. I never could forget about it, try as I might to push it beyond my thoughts.

The tipping point -  would the truth be too much of a cost to bear?
