The river
From the dark shadows of the past to the unfair justice of this cruel world lies every new day that passes by around the shores of the flowing river, like a gentle wind it flows traveling with all the armies of water like soldiers on the battlefield, long live the 300 spartans such a terrifying army they were, it's safe to say the river has found its mentor, blood, sweat, pain, injustice all washed down into this river every day. The river always has two sides like the head and tail of a coin sometimes a wind of shelter, escapism, survival, other times an avalanche of death, misfortune, curse, of course a battle for survival is never absent from a river, imagine a situation where a fortune of gold was discovered beneath the river by two friends, one's greed will always be highlighted like a glowing star, a fight is started like a fire of course one will survive and the other dead, at least the survival of the fittest theory was never wrong, like like the baptism of cleansing it is when bathed in and lije a fresh soul one becomes after leaving the river, such a sight it is to see God's amazing creation of this waterbody exhibiting it's special gifts. The bitter pill of life can be found in the saltiness of the river, they say not everything the heart desires that it gets, you always have to work hard to achieve set goals and targets in life, like the hard task of a crime investigation, but what could be the bane of the river? the storms, the hurricanes, always sends the movement of the river into a frenzy, but at what costs, just for it to be calm after the storms and flows freely at it's own price, that's the beauty of nature and that's how life can become, it will always entertain the good, the bad and the ugly, it's up to be calm in overcoming whatever it throws at us, after all no condition is permanent, that is the lessons we must learn from the river, that determination is always the key to success, like Jesus told his disciples to be calm amidst the storm when they were afraid, this is the story of the river.
