Once in a while,the journey of water seems like a mirror of everyone's life.water begins its travel on earth as it falls from the sky or comes from ice and streams down a mountain into a river or sea.in a similar way,we come into the world and begin our lives on earth.like a river that flows within the boundaries of its banks,we are born with certain characteristics that decide our identity.we are born in a speific time and place,in a specific family,and with certain gifts and disabilites.with these limitations,we meet with many turns and barriers in our life-just as a river does.
Water is a great teacher that shows us how to move through the world with grace,bravery,determination and modesty.when a river breaks at a waterfall,it gains energy and moves on.water inspires us not to become stubborn with fear and stick to what is similar.water is brave and does not waste time sticking to its past,but flows onwards without looking back.at the same time,when there is a hole to be filled,water does not run away from it in fear of the dark.instead,water modestly and bravely fills the empty space.in the same way, we can face the dark moments of our life rather than run away from them.
Eventually,a river will empty into the sea.water does not hold back from joining up with a larger body,nor does it fear a loss of liberty and control.it gracefully and modestly falls into the vastness by contributing its energy without hesitation.each time we move to become part of something bigger,we can try our best to follow the lead of the river.
