The River
It's just water, right?
Our lives are like rivers, every moment giving way to the next, and to the next, irreducible, undefinable, virtually non-existent, yet in total, days, years, lifetimes pass without so much as a ripple reflecting the sun.
In this way, every moment, whether one of joy or of sadness, of love or of longing, of beginnings or of endings, is as precious as a single raindrop in the desert. Love and embrace every second, every moment, every drop of life. It doesn’t come again.
