(Was wondering last evening when to put this down... how apt!)


The other day, it was ice cream day for the ethnic children living at the convent. Only a couple of them are around now as the rest have gone back to the various highlands for a holiday. Guess what did I learn from them?

The first thing they did was to make the sign of the cross and then after that, carefully removed their popsicle from the wrappers. A reminder of Who provides even for the simplest of things.

Thank you for children everywhere! Their simpleness and trustingness are everyday nudges for me to learn from.

In about half an hour's time, I leave for Lavang. I will be staying there overnight. Thousands are already there for the celebrations and hordes more will flock towards that direction today.

Ave Maria!
