(Time and again, I was asked to share about my faith experiences. Frankly speaking, it is not easy for me to share about faith experiences. I often hesitate to share, thinking my experiences might sound silly and stupid to others. But there are certain experiences, persons and moments that gave me ‘DEEP’ experiences along the way. While thinking about ‘the year of Faith’, I tried to articulate these experiences here. Perhaps these are too stupid, too silly, too childish…but they are priceless to me! They keep me going…)
Faith: To be lived!
Today, rather strangely, at the lunch, we got into a conversation on the symptoms of different disease. I was sharing some funny examples and jokes. My companion sitting next to me, in order to pull my leg, whispered, “You should have been a doctor.”
“Of course I am a doctor. I am a doctor of the soul! Don’t you remember St Ignatius asked us to help the souls?” I reply with a witty smile.
He smiled at me and said jokingly, “you are great.”
