In all fairness, I have no idea why I started this blog. And apparently it has been lying idle since November 2008. Still, I have a lot to say without speaking them out. I can tell you about life without getting to make it look like a dull affair.
Sometimes I have nothing to write about here, but it never means that I am suffering from a major writers block...just that probably I need to talk about something with the right set of moods. No point writing about something sad when I am happy.
So I begin my blog with the way I feel right now. Like now I feel so humbled that I am speechless before God and I do not want to say a thing because I know He knows what I feel.
It could have been different yesterday and probably all those other days but I never get a chance to compare and contrast each day because after all...I think each day is totally different, has it moments, and its opportunities.
I wanted to write a story, but I figured hell no, and reason been, a story...fictitious story is penned not typed online. I think there is a difference. My world is larger than I thought. Today I spent most of the evening gawking in amazement at great sense of photography. I was torn between the genuineness of the photos and assuming that they were painted otherwise. However the one greatest art of all arts that took me by grand surprise was the art of cake decoration. Wow!!!! It was and will be the only thing I will never forget.
The twisted colour and texture that brought out cakes to look exotic yet simple and nearly affordable!!!!
Trust me, you can bake a cake and decorate it to your specifics with a lot of grandeur without feeling the pinch of your pocket. That was just one side of the cake decorating art. They were daring and so bold...in any case there is a new generation of minds which think beyond the ordinary and chase no longer after winds but a reality which is brought alive by art itself.
I have learnt that baking cakes, decorating them and displaying them is a way into one person's personality. Be it the portrayal of modernism, traditional flair, or classic touch to it, the characteristic of a person is bound to show up in the the way a cake is designed. Like a house, the foundation is based on what one really wants and perceived to make a cake wholesome. Flour, eggs, baking powder, cocoa, milk, fruits chocolate among other ingredients make a basic cake. The richer the foundation the more sensual the cake and firm it will be . I love my cakes with vanilla essence and or with dark chocolate and fruits (most likely sultanas and raisin). The daring part of me would settle for nuts. If you are genuine fan of Nutfield...the company has a gift in creating honey coated nuts that make you understand the implication of lust if not gluttony. Hence, I began to ponder with the idea of filling cakes with nuts particularly peanuts and macadamia.
Do not get me wrong, I have just gone through a cake design website and it has resurrected in me the spirit of bakery and its artistry. I long to have a chance to venture into that art of baking and giving it the adventure that my mind can afford to reveal to the hands what God has placed in my mind...Gifted Hands.
From the foundation, when a cake has been baked and is ready, begins a job for a few chosen ones. Dressing up a cake for an occasion is like an occasion itself. Whatever you do with it, whatever you think of while you bring life to a cake, it is one of the most relishing moment for any cake lover. Whether it is the Black Forest, or Carrot cake or Devil Food cake, it is like watching in amazement as a new born child enters into a world from the mother's womb. It is the act of self actualization and giving this one form of food a sense of purpose and life. Let us admit it, we all want to eat the cake, but while you look at it, you see the soul and life of it. If you are a lover of fine things, you will even do exactly what the Father did, say it is good. You would be proud like the Father is proud when He looks at each one of us with such love.
I do not mean to make cakes look like heaven...they are not, they are just a part of our lives which speak for themselves with such beauty. Some of them are so limp and timid like I'd say Marble cake, others are as wicked as the Devil's food cake and others are just sweet tempered as the Carrot cake...they do have a personality as human beings.
Or may be as I think about how much the Father's love is so deep, I am left so speechless I do not know what to say of Him. I am left with the feeling of utter Joy that as much as it was painful that Jesus Christ had to go through all that, at least it was for the best of each one of us. The deed has been done and He has shown us How much the Father's love run deep.
It is my way of entering a world of my own where thoughts can be jumbled but with time they begin to make sense.
Genesis 1:1-2, "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters."
I have just began, and I will continue to emulate the work of God, and pray that writing it down on blog will help you understand God in the way I understand and LOVE Him...
