Been really busy with baby and violin despite an inflammation of at least one tendon in my right shoulder that hurts badly sometimes.
In the midst of all these, I found myself trying to help a dear friend who's family is clearly suffering much from broken relationships and really bad communication.The worse part is it involves the church and the whole episode becomes really ugly with all the unneccessary politics.
Without delving into the issues involved, I can say that I am a easy scape goat as the organisation puts procedures and reputation over and above the more important aspects of the issues - the hurting parents and rebellious children. Its also convenient for them to skip everything refering the entire issue to "private family saga" that had nothing to do with the church despite the implied "condoning" of many a wrongs.
Any way, why be a busy body, my husband retorted!! Why get yourself busy and upset over things like this. Well, he is different from me and do not feel as strongly about helping others like i do. After this "stupid" episode, I find my heart strangely yet predictably hardened.
Yes I wish for the best of the family but i can see I am not "pastor" material. I have too much empathy and will go all the way to help those really close to my heart. But OUCH!
I find that life is already "tough" so to speak, there is not need to worry about other people's problem. So what about the situation in Myanmur, what can i do? Other than praying why should i burden myself with unneccessary "heartache".
Its only wise to enjoy a happy family life, in making good violin music and in getting back into my former shape.
