I would be very wary if they offered me any fruit to eat
And I'd be especially wary of they offered you a kiwi.

Well, life may seem to be a big **** . How messy is the world we live in.
But you know,
there is also so much beauty in it.
I never thought I would ever overcome my depression in the past. (two suicide attempts)
I did not see a way out if it.
But then, I made that illogical step and asked God that if He is that he heals me.
I waited for him patiently and day after day I slowly recovered. And one day I felt such a great love. Flood of love. This day I count to be the day 1 of my Christianity.
You see the beauty in nature, in his wonderful creation. Beauty at looking loving couples, at babies smiling. At all kinds of things.
I am so greatfull to My Father for the peace he gave me. The strength, the love.
He is just awesome.
I wish, anybody arrived at such peace.
If I could I would immediately share with others.
Love you all
But examine everything carefully; hold fast to that which is good.
-- 1 Thessalonians 5:21
For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus.
