dream

The past weeks have not been easy. An overpowering need for freedom and liberation looms like tar in my blue ocean. But over my hurried 1 hour lunch break today, I travelled to Kunming, Lijiang, Dali and Shangri-La. A colleague and good friend shared her 8 days Yunnan experience with me; of the blue skies and the white clouds, the simple farm life of the indigenous tribes, the fingerprints of God on His creation…

Everyone must visit at least once in their lifetime, she asserts.

The six-day creation was not meant to be experienced in one lifetime. Could that be the lure of an eternal life? My heart is racing and my soul more sure than ever that this is what I am working for, what I am living for: to work so I have enough to enhance the wealth of my being in a place like Dali and, to live my earthly life with eternity in mind.

Now, back from lunch, in my little cubicle buried in work, I feel free.

Freedom, indeed, is a state of mind and the faith of an attainable dream.
