I am profoundly appreciative of your support. I have also had similar encouragements from others in here. This place is unique, hence I do try to bring up a variety of information from places that, the mainstream media are interested only in times of calamities. Once again thank you and hope to read from today. God Bless.

The water, representing emotion, is the nutrient that spurs growth
and eventual flowering............very nicely written.
Thank you,

I can sympathize with you. I have struggled at everything I've ever done. Maybe that's how you really learn to appreciate what you have. Oh, the mistakes I've made, and what I've learned from them!

I think that finding clear cleansing water is far from easy. Indeed we often have to climb mountains to find it.
I think some people do want the easy way out in life. Sometimes I wish I could choose that just to give myself a break.

We all want the easy way out in life; yet, the most is learned when we are given challenges.

sometimes murky water is not a good sign
particularly when you want a cleansing swim
