Life

Reading about the bombings in Sri Lanka this Easter weekend brought about this flood of emotions. 

Maybe it’s been a tough month, maybe it’s because I’ve grown to like Srilanka and was looking fwd to be there. Or maybe cos it was at the exact hotel I stayed at. 

Every moment, angle smell sight sound of the hotel comes back to me vividly. How the check in went, the lovely staff who wondered why we wanted single beds, how we got an upgraded room or so I thought. The lovely centre piece in the lobby, the newness of the rooms and the pool view from the window. The pool I never got into. 

I wonder what it looks like now. I wonder what happened to the people we met. And how the hotel has been damaged. 
I wonder when I will be back again to relive the moments. 
God be merciful and help everyone through the ordeal. 

Life is unpredictable savour each experience, every encounter and treasure each person each moment. For there may never be another one again. 
God has His plan we just have to listen, stilling our hearts, opening our minds and baring our souls.
