I Am Like the Lake

I have the good fortune to live on a small lake. I so enjoy the quiet beauty it affords, just watching and looking. The sunrises, the moonlight reflecting off the water, the fog – sometimes so dense you can only make out a solitary boat, other times just slight wisps rising from the surface. My favorite time is when the water is perfectly still, like a mirror, reflecting the clouds and the trees on the far shoreline. It was like that this morning; beautiful, and totally placid. And it occurred to me that at least for this one magical morning, I was like the lake: beautiful and totally flaccid.
