Today I had a great day. Wonderful I must say. But how it became wonderful was a good experience for me. Maybe some might not believe it but well it works for me.
Today started out horrible, tired from yesterday's rehearsal and stuff and simply exhausted to death. Was planning to skip choir and go home rest but end up going library to catch nap and also bought a Coke Light to cheer myself up. So dead, until I decided to pick out a book from the library called "praying everyday" or something like that, the may to august volume. Read a few pages and well it was really amazing. There were like so many nice stories inside, about how people's lives are so enriched through their faith and belief.
For instance the story about an entertainer who wanted to be a monk but he couldn't participate much in the Latin mass since he didn't understand. So he went to a chapel to pray instead to the statue of Mary. All he could offer were his simple prayers and juggling and dancing acts. It always pains him that he couldn't join with the rest of his brethen with their songs and chants. So he just did his best to pray a prayer a different way. Then someone went to report to the Abbot who went to investigate this matter, and whilst he saw the entertainer doing his acts, he also saw an image of Mary trying to fan the entertainer to cool him down.
Well that's one story, there were many other more stories. I was like practically tearing in the libray, luckily I chose a corner where I was pretty much out of view. Oh well after that I just felt more revived than ever. Was pretty much alert and energetic. Pretty amazing. Well this experience just lets me learn how to do reflection better now. And how prayers really do work, just as long as well, you do it right I suppose. I can't really explain about all these stuff that happened, but I just feel it was really great to have this experience for the first time.
