Refused to jump on the horseback

I spent the weekend with a good friend of mine. She introduced me to her community of church goers. I was impressed by how committed and big this community is. They try to lift each other through the spoken words of the bible.
As I entered the community, I created curiosity, interest as much as opportunity.
Questions followed: ''Are you going to Church'' Which church are you going to'' ''Are you a Christian'' Do you believe in God'' 
Then I answered it: No, No, No, Yes
They reacted - looking down, disappointed, sad of my misfortune: ''if you don't follow jump in, you will probably go to hell when you die''.

I thought: I don't know the horse, neither who tamed it. I ain't jumping on his back... hell and heaven can be created on earth... for what happen after death I am not sure.

Food, hot and cold drinks were available for everyone to share. The evening turned out not only to be fun and interesting but also educating. This was a moment we travelled in a l...

She had tried for a year or two to make the hedging bush to recover and live again. She had worked so hard for it to get better. Before she knew it, a man fell onto it and broke all the branches. She stomped, she roared, she got very upset. What is the message she received? She will probably never know until she let it finally all go. Her attachment to the bush is to made her perished. Until, she wakes up and breathe in the storm of opportunities...
