What happened these few days
The PencilOn a Friday evening:
At hydraulic laboratory with AK cleaning-spree. I was presented to water tanks and sand dunes. AK inside the tank, bare-footed and trousers rolled-up knee-length, scrubbing and washing, and me outside, dusting and wiping, half of my light blue T-shirt drenched and turned grey. We tidied up the computer office too. Introduced to some camera device that cost some thousands dollars. Holding it back and forth laboratory and office was dreadful, both to me and AK, knowing too well how clumsy I am with my fingers. My reward of the evening was a Mickey Mouse pencil. This was the Friday AK referred to as one of the sweetest Fridays.
On a Sunday after service:
P. AT handed over and entrusted me with a book: Rhetorical Grammar (Grammatical Choices, Rhetorical Effects), 5th Edition, by Martha Kolln. AK’s response was ‘every grace comes with a responsibility’ and OSG girls of course did not fail to take Spiderman's 'with great power comes great responsibility' into account when I let them know what AK said.
Movies I saw:
Amazing Grace
A William Wilberforce's account. John Newton's mentee, a slave trade abolitionist.
The Sea Inside, Mar adentro
An account of Ramon Sampredo, a quadriplegic. A true story that proposed towards riveting and difficult debate on euthanasia. One that pries open the question on what is the measure of a dignified and happy life. Also on what is the ultimate freedom.
