My dilated pupils
Before I stepped into the hospital, I was overwhelmed with anxiety and excitement, knowing that this visit could be the answer to my endless prayers, yet fearing for the worst that could happen.
My pupils will be dilated. That's what the doctor told me at the eye centre. This procedure was necessary for him to examine the back of my eyeballs. But to do that, I needed to put some prescribed eye drops. And believe me, this is no ordinary eye drops. The side effect was that I had to suffer from blurred vision for the next five hours. And with the glaring sun in my eyes, it was a disaster.
Fortunately, the eye examination went well and nothing was seriously wrong. And although the trip home was a challenge, I'm glad to have survived it. With the prescribed medicine, my eye seems to be getting better, I think.
On a more spiritual note, here's some food for thought. "Why worry, then pray, and pray, then worry?"
