B�N��O

Maria Ang�lica Monnerat Alves

No quarto de hospital, o acordar feliz por me saber de alta naquela manh�.

Ent�o, as persianas s�o abertas e... se faz a Luz!

O sol nascia...

Fragilizada pela condi��o f�sica e, ainda mais, pela contempla��o do espet�culo, me emociono. (na vida agitada da cidade, estes momentos s�o cada vez mais raros...)

Aquele sol, luz e calor, me aquecia , penetrava a alma , inundava o quarto e o meu ser.

Presenciar o renascer eterno renovou em mim a certeza de que "Tudo passa sobre a Terra", como nos ensinou Jos� de Alencar.

E me quedei, iluminada , beatificada e agradecida pelo privil�gio de viver aquele momento t�o �nico e, ao mesmo tempo, t�o fugaz...

For�as renovadas, agradeci a Deus por mais esta b�n��o recebida!

"E o dia amanheceu em paz"...

BLESSING

In the hospital room,  the happy awaking for knowing that in that morning I was discharged.

So, the shades were opened  and �there was Light!

The sun was rising�

Frail because of my physical condition, and even more, because of the spectacle, I get emotional.

(in the busy city life, these moments are each time rarer�)

That sun, light and warmth, heated me up, penetrated my soul, flooded the room and my being.

Witnessing the eternal re-birth, re-new in me the certainty that �Everything goes by the Earth�, as Jos� de Alencar taught us. I stopped, lightened and thankful for the privilege of living that unique and, at the same time, swift moment�

With my strength re-established, I�ve thanked God for one more received blessing!

�And the day began peacefully��
