Nothing that is can pause or stay;
The moon will wax, the moon will wane,
The mist and cloud will turn to rain,
The rain to mist and cloud again,
Tomorrow be today.
~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Change is like a river where the waters do not remain.
It is not a stagnant pool that reeks in summer rain.
It bears a current that has an everlasting flow.
Its' travels glimpse adventure that no pond can ever know.
The voyage is at times arduous as life can often prove.
The obstacles in motion can certainly leave a lasting bruise
Yes change is like a river where the waters never cease,
for this life is an endless journey of lessons to be seen.
Change is a word that we rarely are happy to hear. It could mean we will receive some coins in our pocket, but all too often it may be our comfort zone is about to be swept away, like a fallen hat in a raging river. It is something we can avoid, and we do despise at times, but without it we would never experience growth in our lives. We can resist it like a branch in an opening of a small canal, but the more we fight it the more painfull the process becomes. If we could learn to go with the flow, like a boat in a river, we might just find that the journey of diversity can have a beautiful view on the horizon.
