You cannot step twice into the same river, for other waters are continually flowing on.
~Heraclitus
There is no greater reminder that change is constant than an analogy of water flowing in a river. Acknowledge that each day is new and presents different opportunities. Recognize that life and situations are impermanent, whether good or bad, all moments shall pass. Cherish the people and things in your life as the gifts that they truly are. Do not fall victim to attachment. You will find yourself fighting against the current, swimming upstream to get back to something that has already moved on. Jump into the river and enjoy the journey. Life is much more rewarding when you ride the waves.
