This was a day of work and reading. And a day where I felt tired early so I am considering a slow and early evening. An interesting thought worth seeing as a gift presented itself.
I came to think that at times we are given all the knowledge and all the instructions, but we may lack the trust or even more likely the ability to comprehend what was given and how to handle it. Most likely, at times our gift is so powerful and so wonderful that it temporarily paralizes us, possibly even scares us, overpowers us and confuses us, quite alike a strong sun in it´s giving warmth and light may cause us to end up with a sunstroke and a sunburn. A case where we end up confused, with a strong headache, inability to deal with sounds or anything really and with a pain in the whole body. Further on with a skin that burns and will eventually peal of before we can confortably use the new one and rested gain back our ability to think and work.
When I was young I lived by the seaside and thought everyone regularly got burned in the summer and would shed skin after applying yoghurt to it. I also thought everyone knew that hours between 11 and 15 where those you should spend in a shadow and resting and also did so. That was my world. Now I know things may be different. Yet, my adventure with the sun and play around it´s presence in my life, here talking of metaphor, still continues. I shall hope to apply my knowledge of sun and try to avoid too many sunburns and hope to be aware of sunstrokes so I may approach them accordingly. Grateful for this interesting pictoresque thought.
