A JOURNEY IN HER EYES(16)


   The pastor was discussing something with Mr "K" , Mme"C"'s son ,  while Miss"L" was going to the behind door, where the girl was with the swing . At noon, the sun was in the middle of the sky, a low swing consisted of one seat with umbrella,were there at your left hand, under the grades of the stairs, it was clear that its color was white in the past time, but the sun gave her some of her yellow rise .The girl was sitting ,trying to make it swing in the air for a moment, and took her rest for many other moments , Miss "L" knew that the girl haven't enough power to use it , so she helped her , the smile of the girl was a real prize ,which pleased Miss"L" very much , you can not find pleasure before trying to please the others  , it is the shorter way for happiness , she was speaking with the girl , and the girl liked much to speak with her , but the sound of the chef ,who was standing in the open door of the palace ,made her stop her helping to the girl ,to give her a chance to prepare herself for the lunch ,she waited ,to accompany her to the dining room , but the girl went automatically to sit down beside her father , who stood up after some minutes,to go to the bathroom with his daughter to wash his hands ,and so the girl did ,and returned with him, to sit between Miss"L" and her father, after a little words of welcoming, the pastor prayed and they all began to eat .   While they were eating Miss "L" remembered her intended questions, which were in her memory about the past history ,which she have missed in the life of the pastor ,after leaving her country,At their way she intended to ask him ,but then ,her desire began to vanish gradually ,her curiosity towards these personal informations lost  its interests ,the loneliness symptoms of the curiosity have been healed by the love for the group, and the love which was in her heart then towards other people in her memory , she thanked God for the love which he gave her to love the people as they are, not because of what they were ,or what they might be in their future ,If you loved the person because he was successful ,in fact ,you do not love him, but you love yourself ,because you want to be a friend of a successful person, to steal some of his greatness, to yourself in your imagination as you are a friend of a successful person,If you love a person because he will be successful ,you are a selfish person, who wants to gain something of this success ,which he will pay its price by his hard work ,if you love a person, because he is a person,who has now the present qualification to deal with him with love,that is the real humanly love,But God loved us without any qualifications in ourselves . The meal was finished, after thirty minuets the pastor and his daughter departed,after them Mr"K" and his wife"J" ,and again she remained with her friend ,in the palace ,but without a feeling of loneliness a new atmosphere ,or a new spirit were in their soul , but it changed their conceptions in concern of many things around them, The palace itself became their way to the freedom, which it was in the past the beautiful prison, for a lonely woman., it was the miracle of the increased area of love in their surrounded society ,                                                            and followed                                                                  Rev. Joseph .
