When you are a young person, you are like a young creek, and you meet many rocks, many obstacles and difficulties on your way. You hurry to get past these obstacles and get to the ocean. But as the creek moves down through the fields, it becomes larger and calmer and it can enjoy the reflection of the sky. It’s wonderful. You will arrive at the sea anyway so enjoy the journey. Enjoy the sunshine, the sunset, the moon, the birds, the trees, and the many beauties along the way. Taste every moment of your daily life.

Gorgeous sentiment, DK. I’ve been reveling in the “super moon” these past couple of nights. 🙂
It is Lori. I’m asleep before Super Moon but I’m feeling the glow…
Bam…there it is – we are going to get there anyway. Enjoy the rhythm of the water…
🙂
i absolutely love this.
Loved it too Beth…
And when we’re younger, we create so many of those obstacles or label them as such. The calmer eddies are always there if we look for them.
Yes, yes, yes….
Beautiful. This made my Sunday.
It is Billy, thanks…

I may have seen this picture in another life. It touches me deeply. Thank you.
