yesh, another one of those weird revelations during weird times. There i was, doing my "big business"* in the toilet, when I noticed how dirty the bathroom walls in my home had become. Grimy, full of water and urine stains... ewwww! Dunno why other days din take notice of it. Anyway, decided to do something about it. So took my trusty "Gif" and green scrub, and started cleaning the walls.**
As I was scrubbing away, got a weird sense of pride, as i see the yellow stains being wiped away. Suddenly some thoughts popped into my head:
The toilet wall was fulfilling its function i.e. blocking people from seeing what's going on in the toilet. Through no fault of its own, it picked up the "stains of the world". It can't do anything on its own to get itself clean. It has to take an external party i.e. me, with my "Gif", to notice the stains and get the wall clean by giving it a good scrub.
Similarly, many a times, when we go about things in life, we picked up many "stains of the world" (bad habits and philosophies). Like the toilet wall, we may not even know that we are "stained" or "unclean". It takes the attention and work of God in our lives, to purify ourselves from our dirt and grime.
Don't understand why I get such revelations... nevertheless, must give glory to God!

ReplyDeleteOf course of course, can tell from direction of sunlight and angle of ultraviolet rays, the gamma intersections don't quite figure in the two composite pictures besides the 10.26cm difference in the width of the back wall...
ReplyDeleteIn terms of starting your cleaning company, well, you have a good advertisement of your spiffy cleaning products with sample-sized bottles to give away, very good... very good.
