Are we in Tune?

Once in a rainy afternoon, I heard a soothing melodies. I knew, that sound came from a piano. It was beautiful, so beautiful that made me feel like leaving this real world, deep into my fantasy.. The harmony was so calm and mild that made me keep wondering..

"how that beautiful sound is produced?"

A piano has many keys..Each of them has a unique sound. Although there are only 12 tones, but each of them has a different pitch. unique, it's unique..

In order to make a beautiful harmony, a pianist has to press some keys..Those keys work together, producing a certain harmony.. They work alternately, combining some harmonies to be a beautiful song in accordance with the pianist's hands, which turns out to be a beautiful performance..

Somehow I wondered..it's life..it's us..

We live together, we are the keys..God is the pianist.

Let's live in harmony, helping each other, supporting one another, completing each other to live according to God's will.

Let's do our best, don't ruin the harmony. Once a key is broken, it will burden all the other keys, and of course distress the pianist.

Let's live in tune.. :)

And after I lost myself to a deep thinking, I realized..

that beautiful sound came from my hands on my piano.. :)

|| Floating with an Air Balloon ||

I'm sure everyone of us know a balloon is elastic, easily burst, and easily blown by the wind that we have to tied it up or hold it tightly. In other words, it is unstable. And so did I. When I was a kid, I was easily affected by the environment. When someone treat me well I was easily flattered, but when someone treat me bad I was easily feel offended. I was so emotional, mushy, and very dependent to others; especially to my family.

As time goes by, I've grown to become more like an air balloon through all my experiences. Now I am much more stable and calm.

In the heart of the air balloon there is a burner. The burner is used to make the balloon rise and to keep it aloft. In my case, this new found motivation of mine is my burner that keeps me struggle to survive through my life's complicacy. It enables me to control myself and to face every obstacles in my life. Just like the air balloon facing air turbulence, being shaken wildly at times, but still manage to maintain its direction; because the flame is still burning. The burner in my life is my God. He is the One who burns me to have the motivation to live and teaches me how to live.

We can also see a basket on the air balloon. It is used to carry people to enjoy the magnificent views of the world. I wish I could be like the basket too, where I can inspire others to feel the beauty of their lives. I wish through me, people around me can realize the grace of their lives and be grateful for it. There are usually so many graces, but sometimes they aren't too obvious. Just like the air balloon that can easily be seen by the world, I want to share my life that I can be a blessing to others.

Life is beautiful so long as we are grateful for it and have people to gently remind us to do so. My life is like an air balloon.. It is a simplified picture of things, but it works. My life is like an air balloon.. Would you like to become one too?
