| Love..despite the imperfections. |

Early this week, I had a dream: I lost control of my temper, pushed a kid, he bumped his head on the table that was made of glass, his head exploded, his brains were all over the place. I woke up scared. I prayed. I googled what that dream meant. And this is what I have found out. If you dreamed of killing someone, whether intentionally or by accident, it signifies a period of severe emotional stress during which you must make a heroic effort to control your temper. If the dreamer accidentally kills someone, caution in dealing with upcoming situations is called for. We have our share of bad days, even bad weeks, month, or year. I had my share of bad week this week. I had to deal with someone who has hit my nerve once too many. When I saw him on Wednesday, I tried to divert my thoughts. I did my best to stay away, only coming back when I had to. Then I heard him utter something about how I was handling something. A comment that once again has hit my nerve. I knew what I was doing. I have my ways to do things. I felt the heat in both of my ears. I am not in the position to argue. Sometimes you do not have a choice but to follow or keep mum about something. I took a deep breath and prayed (a lot!). I went out for two hours and came back calmer. The pain of being hit that hard was still there but I thought maybe it's just because I do not like this person at all. He makes me feel small. Tiny, even. But there's no way I can run away from him. Maybe in a few years. To calm me down and make me feel better, I kept on telling myself this: We do not need to like everyone; but we need to LOVE every human being. Love..despite the imperfections. God wants us to live like Christ. It's hard but we ought to try. On times like this, when patience is being tested, I think of Jesus. |
