Quote of the day: Norman Maclean
I just came across this supremely profound quote on the internet and it makes me wonder about how water has the ability to manoeuvre itself through every nook and corner.
Water in itself is a circle. Raindrops falls from the sky to meet the rivers on land which then flows and empties themselves into the deep sea. Seas then flows themselves into the huge oceans which send tsunami waves upon the land, cutting through everything in its path. Some of the water then seeps through the cracklines along the rocks while some evaporates into the air to meet the clouds in the sky.
It's interesting how Norman managed to come up with such a vivid imagery through the use of words. Splendid indeed.

Word of the day: Kawaakari
This is such a beautiful word and I fell in love with it instantly the moment I set my eyes upon it. Reflection of moonlight on a river is surely one of the most beautiful moments that Mother Nature keeps in her coffers.
Luckily for us, we do get to see this image but only if we dare to venture out of our comfort zone to seek a river out. This is especially true for urbanites who hardly get the chance to get close to Mother Nature, due to the manmade structure of a city in which we live in.
For me, there's the Singapore river which is located very near to my workplace but in my opinion, it isn't a very beautiful river because of the pollution that plagues it throughout time.
Sigh.. what a pity indeed.
