Yesterday I was feeling a bit heavy. I was looking for something which would give me a break of my unusual activities. Suddenly it clicked me that I could accompany two of my companions as they were going to the ‘HOME’ of Mother Teresa Sisters’ for the weekly service. I called one of them and expressed my desire. He welcomed me and asked me to get ready soon.

An unexamined life is not worth living!
The very saying of Socrates, “An unexamined life is not worth living” was the theme of an essay which I had to write for the entrance test for my philosophical studies. I do not remember what exactly I wrote but I do well remember that the thought kept on lingering for quite sometimes. Today I finished my semester end exams. Last few days I was almost confined with books. I had spent hours after hours reading, writing and memorizing. I do not bother about the outcome as I always do. I know that I tried my best and worked hard. With these exams I have also completed half of my studies here in Rome. Should I examine my life at this point!
No! I do not make any general examination…rather I take the other way. I live out my life fully and let God examine my life!

I must confess that ‘those days’ I was too simple! Too innocent! I would think and perceive things in different ways than I do today. ...
