One night a man had a dream. He dreamed he was walking along the beach with the Lord. Across the sky flashed scenes from the life. For each scene, he noticed two sets of footprints in the sand: one belonging to him, and the other to the Lord. When the last scene of his life flashed before him, he looked back at the footprints in the sand.
He noticed that many times along the path of his life there was only one set of footprints. He also noticed that this happened at the very lowest and saddest times in his life. This really bothered him, and he questioned the Lord about it. "Lord, You said that once I decided to follow You, You'd walk with me all the way. But I have noticed that during the most troublesome times in my life, there is only one set of footprints. I don’t understand why, when I needed You most, You left me.” The Lord replied, “My son, My precious child, I love you and would never leave you. During your times of trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you.”

Dear 程霜,
Thanks so much. You are right.
Your writing always has so much wisdom. I learn a lot reading it. I believe many people benefit from it.
God bless you.
Ruth
Thank you Ruth for your compliment.
I don't think I have that many audiences visiting/reading my blog as frequent (and loyal) as you.
雖有智慧,不如承勢;
雖有知機, 不如及時.
機會, 始終要靠自己把握....
Are you suppose to spend some time preparing for your upcoming wedding? You need to get enough "beauty" sleep to maintain the moisture of your skin. Shouldn't get up that early...... :)
I live in Hong Kong and the time showing on your blog is not Hong Kong time. I don't get up early. Thanks for your concern.
The wedding will be in October in Greece. So, totally simple except we need to prepare some documentations which have to be translated into Greek. It needs to be done by the Consulate and appostille.
your first comment shows the time as 4:36 pm SPT which equals to 7:36 am Sat HK time.....
為什麼被人幫著了也不知道的？
Very good question, Thanks, San Wen ji.
Because majority of the people all have a bad habit: when they get into trouble, instead of looking for a solution to solve the issue, they tends to blame others. I think you've seen quite a bit happened at your office.
This paragraph is written for those people who feel being left out/left alone when they are down. Each person has a guardian angel to look after him/her. Have you locate yours yet?
那個人便是“我”。我找到了。
解決問題的人永遠都是自己，別人可以做的是給意見和借來一對耳朵。
Agree, you solve your own problem.
But Guardian Angel is here to provide spiritual support and comfort you when you need it, not to help you to solve problem......
問題已經沒有了，也不需要什麼的安慰。與其等別人的安慰，自己給自己好了，要什麼給什麼。
Exactly! HE is up there to help you to get through all the hurdles of life while you don't even realize HIS existance. The man did not realized that he has been help all the time until he reach the end of his life.
That's the message.
Wonder who's she/he?
