Rivers are amazing forces. The force behind the river's current over a period of time erode the earth's surface and changes it into something new; consistently changing its path. As I watch this tremendous force of water rush past me in the Sierra Moutains I take notice of the river and the way it effects everything in its path.
Rocks underneath the water are rounded down to soft surfaces. While rocks still standing out of the water have jagged edges; awaiting the fate of being washed away. The fauna around the area whisps back and forth in slow motin as the river flows through it. It is a masterpiece of Mother Natures work.
Observing this force I reflect upon how humans are so closely linked to nature. The river is a consistent flow of water that does not stop. It erodes the earth and changes its form. Humans naturally strive to change and these changes bring about new opportunities.
The rocks underneath the earths surface skip along the bottom of the river like people following a strong leader. They may not know where they are going but they believe in their leader and follow along without asking questions.
Large rocks jet out of the rivers surface making the river flow around them. These rocks represent new leaders that create paths.
The shorelines are askew with large rocks untouched by the river's force; rocks that are about to fall into the water and be carried away; worn away rocks that are tired of flowing down the river and stopped to take a break; fauna that stands the test of time as rivers ripple through it trying to wear it away but it stands strong.
Everything on earth is interconnected with life forces. However, humans have the chance to change their path. Rocks have to roll along for the ride. Humans can alter the course of Earth's future by making conscious decisions to protect it. http://www.planetarynations.com/
