a bruised reed he will not break, a smoldering wick he will not quench. Mt. 12:20
About Me
- bruised reed
- just shooting questions to the universe and hoping that when the right time comes I will receive some answers, or if not, I will be given something to enrich my life.

Life stories are complex
Take courage. Don't lose hope. Jesus has overcome the world and Jesus will help those who trust Him and follow in His ways.
This world, as we know it, is a battlefield between good and evil. This world is reflected, in a miniature way, in ourselves. There is always a battle within me: what will I choose?
Making choices is not always easy. A lot of times our choice is not between good or evil, right or wrong.
When one chooses what is convenient, expedient, easy, popular, consensual .... it doesn't always mean that they are choosing evil or wrong, right?
It is because of this dilemma that we are called to be merciful in our judgments. We don't know the whole story. And life stories tend to be complex.
But at the same time, we are called to open ourselves to the Holy Spirit, who illumines us to make choices according to the mind and the heart of Jesus.
