The river of life
Life is a like a river flowing inexorably on, relentlessly, through crevices and canyons, over pebbles and stones, sometimes abruptly falling away as a waterfall tumultous, raging, powerful and destructive and sometimes over verdant plains meandering along in lazy curves giving life and sustenance, flowing inexorably on as destined, with no control over the course or the journey or the obstacles encountered till finally it conjoins with the ocean; deep, vast, powerful, and eternal.
