Today saw me up at the north end of the Loop Line railway path that I sometimes walk.

 

I've not been to this particular spot for ages, and in fact maybe not even since 2020! When I was there last I encountered some horrible flooding that rendered the path almost impassible.

 

There has been a big improvement since then. It looks like an excavator has been brought into to drag some soil up into a raised emabnkment which has been surfaced into a footpath. Although the conditions have been wet of late, it was perfectly safe and dry.

 

I'm sure Keith will be quick to spot, however, that there's still a tyre there!

Time is the substance from which I am made. Time is a river which carries me along, but I am the river; it is a tiger that devours me, but I am the tiger; it is a fire that consumes me, but I am the fire.

Success is a journey, not a destination. The doing is often more important than the outcome.

Take a look at your natural river. What are you? Stop playing games with yourself. Where's your river going? Are you riding with it? Or are you rowing against it? Don't you see that there is no effort if you're riding with your river?
