Rivers

just came back from a short camp at chenderiang, perak.

went up-river wading.

it was bloody mind-blowingly fantastic.

went up against the currents just after a heavy downpour...

gallons of water, coming full force at you, under currents dragging you down, currents sweeping you off your feet, rapids racing over rocks, unstable footing every step of the way...

conquered the full force of the river coming down through a two-metre wide gap between two boulders... with some much needed help. someone almost got swept away, had to help hold on to them and pull them up :D

it was i.n.s.a.n.e.

throughout, i learned so much about the geological structure of rivers... and linked them to lessons we should learn in life...



before you conquer the sea, one must first conquer the river.

pools of love which overflow become a river of love that flows on and on.

still waters run deep. way deep.

to avoid the rapids of your life from sweeping you away, hold on to the rock beneath the rapids.

always get a secure hold on wherever you are before moving on.

life is like a river, forever moving, forever changing, relentless, but as the river swells and subsides, so does life.
