There is a steady rhythm of rain on the roof this morning, the streets are quiet as we all stay inside, left to contemplate the day ahead !
Among those random thoughts I wonder where the rain will be tomorrow, what will it see.....will it be greeted or shunned ?
It appears nothing is permanent......our daily struggle to stand firm, put down roots, create some monument to ourselves really is a waste of energy.
Much like the rain we should do what we can while we are here, encourage growth, feed poor soil and create a fertile foundation for beauty to grow.....the rain has little or no intention, it just is for as long as it is here....should this not be our mantra ?
It has taken several lifetimes to learn the lessons of life and now I find myself releasing my grip on the rocky bank....letting go of so much in an attempt to see where the current carries me, trusting I will be delivered safely to my final destination....having seen some joy along the way !
Nothing is permanent...we really need to understand this !
Long after we have gone, the natural world will fill in the gaps where we once stood, the memory of our being erased....this is not a bad thing, it is however how it is.
Each of us are passing through, whether you believe it or not, much like the rain....we are temporary, keep moving, do some good while your here and cast your eyes forward towards tomorrow.
