When the virus occurred, I guess almost everyone of us must have been hit in one way or the other.
It struck me at least 3 times, one time I lost my breath for a full day, was not able to climb stairs or I thought I'd die soon.
Though I'm still here, as most of us are (with some exceptions, my elderly foster mum and dad, for instance) it seems, a lot has changed since then. Yes life just does not feel the same - what is back to normal?
On certain days, death might appear closer than life?
My bowels started to have allergic reaction to almost all food, except vegetables and fruits (and nuts - leaving me act like a squirrel when munching them).

At some stage, smell was gone. Being slightly autistic, the fact that I could not smell had significant impact on how I perceived the world around me.

Due to my lack of understanding and persistance, my life was off the hinges before 2020.

Being in isolation has tought me, there is not a single person who can be in charge of my life. I knew this before, but to some extent I had to be reminded again obviously.
If I want to live, I have to take over. Not depend, nor being in need on / of others.

Dramatic circumstances drew me back to prayer, and G'd.
Sad to acknowledge really, but this is the truth, in my case.

While living my life now, day by day, taking moments step by step learning to walk like a little one...

A few days ago I was walking home from work through rural area where I live. Alongside the road grow bushes of blackberries. Loads, of blackberries.
And suddenly I noticed, like, a light was switched on:
Every single one of those blackberries look a tiny bit different!

And, guess what? I also noticed, they all TASTE different, too.

I cannot recall ever having had this sensational taste before? It was like, another dimension?

So, my smell and taste are back, vaguely I remember a few weeks ago I asked G'd to heal things in our bodies as a general prayer, for all people.

How great, amazing this is, I cannot put this in words? What a Creator we have.

This whole thought and idea makes me humble and small, and yet He wants to share His greatness with us?

So the end of the story for the moment is this:
I can live my life, without G'd. Without acknowledging who He is, and what He has done and does and will do.

And end up in a pretty messed up position with myself.

If I choose to listen to Him, and acknowledge who He is... my blackberry G'd...

That's the spirit : half a job is not a job, as a leader you do not get away............. ......... 'Dancing like a butterfly, stabbing like a bee', that was the strategy with which Muhammad Ali attacked opponents who were much bigger and perhaps also much stronger than he was.

Anyone else remember that passage?

How about the great desert acrpss the stars around us. Where every star system had been visited and sterilized in a long ago fear driven attempt to eradicate us a species. But they missed one.

Who else read that tale?
