river [Theme] Page 8

Sometimes, an ordinary life suddenly changes dramatically, like a river when its channel block stones. The hitherto calm water boils in the rapids, boils and rushes, sweeping away everything in their path and instilling fear. Picks up and carries God knows where... what will happen in the next minute... will this minute...

Life is like a slow-flowing river. Everything in it is impermanent, everything flows, everything changes, everything disappears.

In nature, it seems to me, everywhere is full with the sense, but only in rivers contains the idea.

The Yenisei river, the Yenisei river, and I'll tell you slowly:
I love you and all tributaries of the Irtysh.
The Yenisei river, the Yenisei, are you comfortable, Yenisei!
If you want - swim, and you want to drink.
