Where Women Find Their Way
Think of this as slow-moving, meditative water. Enjoy the peacefulness of the journey. Appreciate the quiet, the serenity. Life can be gentle.
This second image, taken just a few feet away from the previous spot, is definitely faster moving water. There's a feeling of much more energy. Life is fast paced, moving. We get geared up to get things done.
Now, think about the pace of your own life. Does one of these images feel more common or normal to you? Does one feel more comfortable to you than the other?
Sometimes the pace of life is like the slow pace of the trickling, meditative water, sometimes it's like the fast moving, energy-filled water. When we are in sync with one image, the other image can seem a bit irritating. Is it possible to experience both at once, or can we experience only one pace at a time?
