Thumbs UP & a "V"

Thumbs UP & a "V" sign :)

Two weeks ago, I suddenly came down with a bad case of cold sore. The blister below my left eye suddenly developed into an acne-like bump. Overnight, that lone "acne" multiplied into a cluster of boils, forming an ugly colony.

I had cold sores before, & they always appeared at the edge of my mouth. I thought that was the worst place to have them. Until this episode, when they appeared right under my eye :(

Such prominence!

Well, anywhere such angry colonies appear on the face will be prominent alright :D

This was taken sometime last week, when I needed to take some pictures of my completed projects, & my daughter Natalie insisted on being included in the pictures.

So, here we were... me & my huge acne & colony of cold sores.

Strangely, somehow they dont look that obvious through the camera ^^

As my daughter showed, it's a thumbs up, & victory for us.

Isaiah 53:45 says 'Surely He has borne our grief And carried our sorrows...by His stripes we are healed'

As of today, it's completely healed. The scars are still there though, but I'm thankful that it doesnt really bother me that much. And I believe, that given time, the intensity of it will fade away too.
