Ask me if the life I am living is the life that is in me...ask me if I have
been true to my design...to my heart...ask me, so that I might be
challenged to sit and consider...and raise once again the banner that is to
be my unique identity...and having come once again to me I allow myself to
reenter the river of life full of a million little waves and drops who make
it alive...

After everything else has stilled (the river) reflect - some of if not most
of our mistakes are not of our own making - i think.
