A “word” for the week end.

Being a tourist guide gives me the privilege to meet wonderful people from many different places and to be part of something that can be life changing to some of them.
The spring season has just started. The fields are green and full of flowers. The desert hills are covered with tiny green plants which make them look like green domes. The birds are singing, the sun is pleasant and the weather is …………. not as good for the land as it is for the body, soul and spirit of those who are touring.
This cartoon sais it all. It is a “Calvin and Hobbes” by Bill Watterson.

Let the day fall all around you

And let the breath of life surround you

What a day it should be a holiday

And those lazy days are hard to come by

Here for our pleasure, a moment to treasure

Stay with me and lend me your company

For You, You show to me

All the world gives for free

And there's no more that a man can ever ask for

And if we, we could see half He gave us to see

Then we'd be half way to finding the answer

So where will all the seasons go

It's for us to ask, it's for Him to know

It's too much for me, for such is the mystery

And all these things we take for granted

But how did they get here, when were they planted?

If we could see, then what would the answer be?

Today we'll see the butterfly

And we'll smell the grass and we'll feel the sky

Oh what a day, let no one take this away

But I will live my life forever, asking the questions

But answers will never come to me

For such is the mystery

For You, You show to me

All the world gives for free

And there's no more that a man can ever ask for

And if we, we could be half He wants us to be

Then we'd all be half way to finding the answer

This song was written by John Dawson Read and it has become my favorite of all times. It can be found on Cliff Richard’s album “Walking in the light”.

I thought this could be a good start on the week end.
