The Look

The Look

David Rim

What's for lunch today? Where should I eat? Should I stop by and watch the sunset? Am I even scheduled to work tomorrow? If blood sugars are x how much can I consume by the time I take my insulin. A busy day. A busy Sunday.

Running around like a man on a mission. How can I not notice the micro in the macro of it all.

And what to come of it but the innate desire to reach out from a place of love. I walked by a friend in passing did not want to muster a Hello. Because our relationship is of one where greetings are welcomed, but they would rather not and avoid. Right at the crossing point they uttered from their breath a late Hello. I was already pass the point of return, "Hello". While passing by like a speeding F1 driver I pivoted by another friend being thrown into the road. Where greetings should be welcomed, but things have never come to be. Where the flow of water would lead to a chill lazy tubing down the river. A Hello, that has never surfaced even if they sat next to me. A strange predicament.

The seconds spent just walking from point A to point B. My spirit picked up the .001 second of movement. Let there be peace and iron sharpen iron. As l keep living in my journey. Praying God lets me shine bright and overflow into those around me. But it was their gaze. Those eyes said it all.
