Summer vacation of 10 days
2015-08-18
 It was after a long absence and, at Kasaoka church, spent summer vacation. It was very quiet and was able to spend time calmly. I do individual meditation in ponape island of the Federated States of Micronesia in the first year when I think and spend it and an individual meditates in ponape island of the Federated States of Micronesia in the islands that are near Kasaoka in the second year in the first year and spends it and thinks that I do personal meditation society and spent five days in one Takashima of the islands that are near Kasaoka in the second year. I intended to do meditation society this year in a hometown in the last week in July by saying that I performed personal meditation early.
 
  However, it was the way of the world not to go on schedule and, fortunately, I was able to perform meditation society this year, but had that I said that you might have to operate on coronary arteries at, in fact, this time. This is because an overhaul was demanded as reexamination in the examination of the school which I received in April. There is only the last week of July if I have an operation. It was discharge, to say that it took one week enough if it became long if things go well in three days. I prepared inwardly "does an individual lying in this like that meditate?".
 
  However, anything is that trouble did not occur even if I undergo a re-examination and see it. I thought that it was probably a blessing from God, but did not have arrhythmia and the subjective symptoms called the anguish at all, too. Finally what felt it experienced arrhythmia and anguish time and time again to in front of angina where an attack appeared approximately nine years ago. It was what myself understood well that there was not such a thing at all. But it brought deep peace and joy in my heart that even an overhaul said that it did not appear.
 
  The rest of August was ten days. But the getting up is same half past 5. There is the mass in the morning, too. However, feelings are different if I am in the daily church. I always feel floating when I think to do daily what today, and floating, and having done it because it is me whom there is only on international day and Sunday.
 
It might be said that I wanted to do only some this. I was able to carry out only half of the expectation when over. But the heart was calm. Because I lived with the tabernacle which God always came to every day, I thought that I looked back and saw it even if it was natural that a heart was calm.
 
The road in front of the church was a hullabaloo in a car and the people of people who went over to the island day after day. I have looked at the person in a boat on sea bathing, homecoming, all those business darkly. While I look at various many people, each person will walk each life. It seemed to be days without getting tired when made to think how I would live in now.
 
I was thinking with rearranging of own baggage during this rest that I could not regenerate the candle of the altar to use at the time of mass with the fragment of the candle which it remained somehow. There were only some posts where a breast was rich in both the church where I started for my new post and the kindergarten when I looked back. It was the situation that I could not think whether you should buy a new candle simply. The monastery where I was when I remembered it used the candle which reproduced in that way. It will be possible if I make a groundless thing even if I did it how. But it must be a solid thing visually if it becomes the candle to use at an altar.
 
But there was a feeling to want to make the candle so as to be usable at the time of weekday mass even at least. So I bought a thin iron plate and wrapped a candle inside and rounded it and hardened the circumference with packing tape and saw it. I pulled a candle and after all gave a bottom on an iron plate in a circle. And I put the candle which I dissolved and saw it, but what harden is late, and low leaks from the gap of the iron plate. I put the ice which had you buy it at a convenience store in the bucket which I put and finally calmed down. Only one candle was finally completed with the Assumption festival whom mass was over and helped together. It was the candle which was very unspeakable with shapelessness.
 
While I was thinking about a problem how there was the candle which was not distorted visually either which I did well together, an opinion "can you not make the model with father, gypsum?" came out. It is the opinion that the gypsum which is worthy of considerable high heat is over in a net. After taking a model with clay in the days of a junior high student, and pulling out the piece of the sheet of plastic which I hung gypsum on the top and dried gypsum and stuck into dry gypsum in a circle, and pulling clay out of there, and having poured soap liquid, I poured gypsum some other time, and it dried, and the memory that made an image of the gypsum which I took the gypsum of the circumference, and there was in an art room revived once.
 
Though it was necessary, summer vacation has ended the some invention while I was thinking that possibly it might be possible.
I cannot help thinking that God gives you the wisdom called the inventive idea. I think that I felt that it is to be because wisdom of God works in the every corner of the life to say that I spend time in prayer every day some other time.
