After the gospel reading, last Sunday, I almost sat on a toddler who had crawled four rows up and climbed on my chair. Thank God, I did not sit on the baby, it would had been disaster, physically and emotionally.
We don't come all the way for the pilgrims mass at Vallarpadam to sit on someone else's baby.
It was awful to think the family who was on the row behind me, did not warn me. Perhaps they did not see the Baby too as the gospel reading was on.
Some one with equal measure of highs and lows in life - family, education, work and friends. An attempt to share the efforts to find peace through Jesus to live this life. My victories and failures on that road of life..
Just like many other Kochiniers I was also offered a slave to Mary @ Vallarpadam as a child by my parents in the tradition of Meenakshi Amma's faith.
In and around the church whenever possible, contemplating on Meenkashi Amma's faith most of the time.
This does not mean, I do not accept other faiths, infact I do, I have complete respect for other faiths as I believe they are also for helping the man kind to live this life here on the earth well.
