That song says so clearly what we see here every day - the sea-saw of emotion that we sway through in day to day life.
Sights that make you want to weep - followed by times of great laughter.
Poverty - riches.
Reasons to celebrate - reasons to mourn.......
It's true for all of us in all of life, everywhere - all this seems very 'raw' here in Delhi and even after many months of 'living it' it doesn't get easier (thank goodness). Our senses need to remain sharp and stirred otherwise we begin to 'walk by on the other side' and not see!
This week we've had a time to dance - a time to rest - a time to be ill (again!! Heather's bug
🐜
does not want to leave her!!!) - a time to throw away (we're beginning
to think about what to pack in a few weeks) - a time to keep (going to
have to get a bigger case!!!!).
A time to celebrate with Shiv, one of the Asha staff, travelling now with Freddie Martin in the UK. Shiv grew up in Seelampur Slum Colony and attended the Bal Mandal group and has been supported by Asha through his life. He has achieved so much. He now has a job with Asha and is having his first experience abroad with Freddie, visiting churches and speaking at events. He's the most 'smiley' person we have ever met!!
Now it's, a time to stop the rambles and see the pictures - more news there.
Love
Heather and Ken xx
