sojourner

I walked in a rocky road, hunched at my back a basket full of potatoes. I was then soaking wet but then as I traversed to this road, I felt the happiness although the load was burdensome still I can manage. As I walk along, I met a friend. I began to know her and so was she...

I continued to walk, walk until I reach the goal but the load at my back began to increase. I had two baskets hunched at my back. It was a basket full of tomatoes. It didn't mind me at all. I went on and on. Having these baskets full of potatoes and tomatoes gave me backache and headache. but it didn't mind me, it didn't mind me...

Within the journey, there came the rain; it didn't mind me. There came the sun but after all it didn't mind me. I walked and walked and noticed that my head was tucked to the ground but again it didn't mind me... sure enough it didn't...

Then came a time, I met a monster, I was horrified because of his ferocious appearance. We communed together although a bit afraid but after all he turned to be a good guy. Sure enough we became friends...

As soon as I walked to this rocky road, I began to feel weary and weak. I started to fell on my feeble knees and found out that I was carrying three baskets. The third basket contained apples. I was in deep pain. I felt the aches. These became burdensome but I must continue to walk until I reach my destination. I left this question hanging, as I bow my head and with sigh: “will I continue to carry these loads on my back having deeply hurt and wounded? or will I unload all these stuffs yet in exchange of being indifferent?
