On the Birthday of JS Bach, “The Story of Mrs. Han & Stormworks”
Several years ago, we made “the rounds” to our favorite Sushi lady, Mrs. Han. Something was different. Above her beautiful smile and always kind eyes was a slightly shaven head.
“What happened, Mrs. Han?”
“Oh, I was in car accident.” She spoke softly, with a heavy Korean accent as she prepared Sushi.
“Really? What happened?”
Mrs. Han explained how she had been in an automobile accident. She had banged her head against the windshield. At the hospital, the doctors gave her an MRI. They discovered a tumor in the exact spot of the concussion.
“So in other words,” said a smiling Steve in front of his young Sons, “you HAD to have that accident to discover the tumor?”
“Yes, this is so.”
She explained that the early discovery of the tumor most likely saved her life. She pointed to the crucifix displayed in her restaurant.
On the way home, I told other stories to my Sons, personal ones from my own life. “Often you’re too close to the slap in the face,” I said. “What appears in the close-up to be a tragedy, a setback, an inconvenience, is often a Gift. When the camera pulls far enough back, there’s a much bigger picture.”
And why is Mrs. Han’s Story and Stormworks the same Story? Because the Stormworks are about Storms and the inevitable return to Light “after” those Storms.
