In the Blink of An Eye

The passage through life is like an unchartered river leading to the sea. The uncertainty of the flow is always something that’s real You may move very fast or hardly move at all. You may traverse a wild current or get caught in its swirl Nature plays this game when we think we can deal Nature plays its game and doesn’t care when we reel. Perhaps the key to happiness is found in the balance of the flow? We are strong in the world but do we listen to the world when nature says no? Perhaps we need to stop dead still and look at where we are? Perhaps nature’s watching and judging our moves and thinks we’ve gone too far? Do we realise that to the world we are just animals here in time? A virus that mutates in the world is as natural has the Moon in the sky. A pandemic that can stop the flow of life in the blink of an eye! Do we realise that nature may be less forgiving next time?
