It's about time
While sitting on the shore of a wild & stormy river, the student asked, “why doesn't time flow straight, but always ripples, either slowing down to a complete stop, or racing like a cow with a thistle under her tail?” The teacher answered: “You see there are a few large stones in the river & a lot of small pebbles. Imagine that the river is your life. If you will only rejoice over big occasions – like your wedding, a new baby, or new business… – then you will cross your life in a few jumps, like jumping from one stone to another. Otherwise, if you will move in small paces over the pebbles, taking joy in small things: a sunny day, the beauty of autumn forest, a good conversation, then later looking back at your life you won’t see ten big stones, but lots of your own traces, & each of them you will be able to remember with a happy smile. And you will see that the road that you have crossed is much longer.”

If we all felt as stongly as some of them do, we could make a big difference in a visitor's experience. Read it on Facebook
