Laurel: Mitä eroa sillä on, kun kysyy ymmärtääkseen tai kyseenalaistaa epäillen? Miten selittäisit eron?
I sometimes see a fellow traveler of the way sitting alone at services. I wonder what brought them there to sit alone. I seldom find strength to go talk to them. Imagine arriving at services and no one notices you; no one speaks to you.
We are told there is a lot of perfection around us. Advertisements encourage us to strive toward perfection. Media give instruct us on how to succeed perfectly well in various actions: ”This is the way to cook a perfect meal, set your table perfectly, fold your clean laundry, wash and polish your car, decorate your living-room, do your gardening, make coffee, and so on.” We can be perfect in many activities.
A few days ago I was biking around the town. There is nothing special about biking, but it was special that I was not wearing my earpods. I was only listening to my own thoughts and things I could hear around me. I heard so much birdsong that I did not even hope for anything more to listen to.
My memories often go back to the Christmas 30 years ago. We were expecting our third child, who was due to be born in about a month. I had just had a prenatal checkup, and everything seemed fine. On St. Stephen’s Day I began to think something might be wrong, and a doctor referred me to hospital. After some examinations it turned out our baby had died. I remained in hospital overnight, and my husband went home to see about our children.
In the morning it seemed like a perfectly ordinary day. I do not even remember how ordinary. Now, close to 20 years later, I feel I can think back to it and reminisce.

In October 2021, Päivämies published an editorial titled There is always hope that loved ones who have left will return into God’s kingdom. The editorial described the distressing parental experience of having a child give up their faith. The readers were reminded that the grace of repentance is completely a work of God. The article went on to say that no-one leaves God’s kingdom because of inadequate parents or friends or remains in it due to good upbringing.
I was requested to send a videotaped birthday greeting to a mutual friend. The birthday was celebrated within the immediate family, and the video greeting was to be a surprise to this friend of mine.

Do you have experiences of your body not functioning well? Or do you have a hard time finding a balanced diet?
My husband can be quite secretive. While sharing his life with me, he has probably learnt that he should present new ideas with a thought-out plan, or otherwise they may change in the “supreme court”, as he is fond of saying. Well, I don’t know about that.
