I began to think about life and how it compared to a flowing river. I was thinking that when we are born it can be compared to the source of a river in a mountain, it is the begining of something new and you don't know it will lead you.
As life progesses then it begins to incounter may obstacles, just like when water is flowing and it incounters small rocks and pebbles during its course.
Life never takes the smoothest course, just a river can take the course of sharp turns and bends. I also see this as in life when people have many ups and downs, but it always more often than now to return back to normal.
As life ends, it can often be compared to a river gently flowing into the ocean to rejoin the rest.
I'm not sure if this has made any sense, but i just needed to let my thoughts out :).
