Yesterday was quite an eventful day: Much to our surprise the electricity department men landed up (true to their word, the previous day) to repair the faulty transformer and cables. It is after a full year of pleading, bribing, complaining, instigating, petitioning that they have done this job. It kept us occupied the whole morning.
Then there was the disturbing news about the cancer of the colon of Fr Devadas. Hopefully with the removal of the big intestine the cancer would be held in check. We accompany him with our prayers.
Then the news and decision concerning the Regent for next year. With Fr Provincial announcing that he would be able to spare anyone, we almost unanimously singled out Satheesh of the outgoing batch as the one, if his Bishop would permit.
Several other petty but interesting things kept me occupied yesterday, enough to send me sprawling on my bed by 9.30 itself - perhaps the first time in months! The discovery that someone was interesting in purchasing some abandoned wood/trees in the campus, that the cashew crop is seemingly quite promising, the awareness (after one full year of stay here) that the plot with cashew tree beside the lake is ours too, the disrupted sittings for the evaluation of the Brothers and the interesting sharing of views, opinions, information about several things of the Community and Province.
