A Subject for Meditation

Here is a meditation I like to do.  See a snowflake in your mind's eye and trace it's origin back into the cloud, as the cloud, and before that, water vapor rising up into the atmosphere. See it evaporate from standing water, transpire out of plants, respire out of animals, or the mundane act of urination.  The plants and the animals drank water that previously came from standing water or precipitation.  This endless cycle goes around and around and we are all connected by and are mostly made up of water. We share this interconnectedness with all life that depends on water, it makes up our bodies, and it is constantly recycled through the planet. We are the waves on the ocean.  We last our time and then go back to the mother ocean to become another wave or a pretty snowflake.
