d' weather

Hmm, the weather now is something like this. At the other side of the sky, the sun painted it light orange. Another rainy evening. And here I am laboring for my last two papers. I can't wait for the exams to be over. Tomorrow 5 pm. Yupz, that's it, man, I tell you.

My BerryBlueBeaniePlant is dead. Confirm. Just when I was happily celebrating the little leaves, oh boy, later in the day the leaves bent down and I know the plant is dying. Oh well. The plant served its purpose. I used it to study for my plant structures and functions. And I learned a lesson from this experience of growing a bean.

A precious lesson about tender loving care. The other one is this...

the LORD gives and takes away

It was the first thing that struck me when I saw the plant that was already half dead by then. How I mourned over its 'first death' and how I celebrated its 'resurrection' when I saw new leaves sprouting out a few days after that! I thought the plant is gonna make it to a bigger plant. Go, BerryBlue! I thought it will grow strong and healthy.I thought...

I just couldn't stop thinking about this...

the LORD gives and takes away

I guess that's what life is all about. Life and death. Some survived. Some didn't. Literally and metaphorically. We all live by the grace of God. HE knows what HE is doing.
