Rolling On

I sit here at this dock and watch the waves continuously roll by. The sun paints the water with its rays of light, and soon covers it with an endless blanket of stars. While I absorb my surroundings, I am suddenly reminded of life. The luminous glow of the sun represents the blessings in our lives. It magnificently reflects off the transparent water as we often reflect off of each other. Then, there is the night sky. I view this darkness as the difficult times in our lives. All of us have had to survive through hardships at one time or another. However, thanks to the people that love us, we make it. They are the shimmering glimpses of light; they are the stars. Then, there is the rippling water, that is us. No matter what life throws at us, may it be good or bad, We keep rolling on...
