There is something about gentle ripples in water that is soothing. I particularly like watching raindrops as they fall into puddles and on still lakes.

As rain falls into the water, that single drop becomes part of the whole. And yet, at the same time, the surface tension of the whole receiving that new drop sends out a radiating pattern.

There is cause and effort even in the smallest bit of change and reconnection.

It reminds me to find joy in the ordinary and to smile and connect with all those around me.
