Rome

Being in Europe is in itself already a blessing. Having gone around Europe is double the blessing.
Not being able to go to Rome is something I may regret now and for a long time probably. Yet, if it is God’s will that I am unable to go, then I must for once listen to the unseen.
There are already so many supervening events that have happened which prevented me from going to Rome. I suppose, I should listen to these series of events and listen for once to what God has been telling me all along.
The time may not yet be ripe for me to go to Rome. So even if it pains me in my heart not to go, I have decided not to. I am throwing away an opportunity of a lifetime, I know. It makes me feel so depressed and so envious of the people who have managed to get there. But this is the one journey I don’t think I am supposed to make. Not yet, anyway.
Who knows? Maybe after law, this is something I can attain for. Rome is something I studied about since childhood. I have even watched the movie, Battle of the Titans at least twenty times and know by heart the battle between Romulus and Remus which resulted in the creation of Rome. I have gazed at the Sistine Chapel in all the pictures I can see. But it was not yet meant to be for me.
I should be telling this with a sigh. But I have examined myself closely now and weighed everything. Sometimes, the hardest thing to do is to let go of the thing you want most.
Rome is something I should let go. Temporarily….
