I was having a conversation with three ladies over some merienda after my mass.
"Father, it has not rained for a long time. This has not happened for a while."
" And, Father, the other day, there was an earthquake. There had not been an earthquake since 1990!"
"Did you read the disaster in the US? A bridge collapsed, killing 9 people!"
"Father, these are signs." The first lady said as a matter of fact. Knowingly. And nodding, for special effect.
"Signs?" I asked, wondering what signs she was talking about and if ever, what reality do they point to.
"Signs, Father... signs of the end of times", she prophesied.
And the other two, nodded in agreement.
