"Life in us is like the water in a river."
Henry David Thoreau
Yesterday, on my 15-mile roundtrip hike in the Rawah Wilderness, I found water everywhere! The streams were busting full and roaring, the trail was filled with rivulets and pools, and there were three separate thunderstorms - with blue sky appearing in between - on a single afternoon. Best of all, the alpine lakes were chock-full with the life-blood of us all. Perhaps if we could tune in better to the substance running through our veins, we'd be more fluid in our mindset, more brimming with joy, and more patient in our attempts to create fresh channels in our lives. Truly, water is divine!
