It all about the way you look at it....

In the last weeks we have had every week a couple of days with rain. The result of these rainy days in Micleuseni you see in the picture: pure juicy and slippery mud!

So while walking through the mud there are always different questions and thoughts going through my mind: Is all this mud to be looked at and to be received as a blessing? Or is it oke to dislike the mud and to see this as an extra struggle and an extra challenge that is just hindering me?
Well, it is a fact that sometimes it is hard to find your way through the Moldovan mud without falling but than on the other hand, it is a good practice in keeping the balance. And walking nowadays learns you also how to pray to the point, like "Lord, keep me from falling".

So despite the extra challenges the rain brings us, we are also very happy and thankful for the rain. It is very good for Moldova, the land, the crops and not to forget: of course our small business with the beans and watermelons is doing great so far!

So yes, as many things in life, it all depends on how you look at it: is it a blessing or is it extra struggle?
