We, living and mortal beings on this planet, are strongly connected. By friendship, love or hatred. By thoughts, acts or inaction. Our energies run slowly and incessantly like a river. They merge into riverbeds, flow with water, exchange streams. Sometimes we run away from it, afraid of entering this river. We run away from real relationships and deep feelings. However, this river will never run dry. It will keep flowing, constantly absorbing new streams and inviting us at least to sit by its banks.
