Peace in my Heart

The sun was shining. The sky was amazingly blue. The November sunrays got tangled in my plaits. I was at a place that always makes me feel better no matter how I felt a minute ago.

Today I experienced some unspoken joy. The joy one can only express in a smile, in a teardrop of happiness when there is nothing one can or should say. No words are needed. Only your eyes and heart are able to reflect this joy of peace in your heart. This joy is like a little butterfly on your palm you do not want to scare away…

I went to church this morning. One of the greatest icons of God's Mother arrived at our place. Many people came to revere this holy image of Mother Mary. 


I know some of you do not share my religion. I'm Greek Orthodox what means I believe in the Holy Trinity - the Father, the Son (Jesus Christ) and the Holy Spirit. I have friends who call themselves to be atheists. I don't like to argue about God. There is no sense in any long debates. I am not going to convert anyone into Christianity. I am not a powerful speaker, anyway. I am such an imperfect Christian myself...:( Let's say I am not a good example to follow.

Well, what I want to say today is - I am truly happy I am not alone. I have felt it today once again. I wish my feelings could be visualized or expressed by a beautiful piece of music.
I am happy God is. I am happy He believes in me. I am so weak sometimes. But He never leaves me when I fall. 

Even the weather was miraculous today - plus 15 C  or 59 F (what's really warm for the last day of autumn). And just imagine - the sky was crying but as soon as I left home - it became so clear and sunny...When I came home (almost straight away) the sky dressed on its dark coat and started to weep again...Is that not a miracle, a sign of Love that cares for me and everyone of you?
