I was driving behind a cement truck the other day and here's what came to mind:
That cement truck was driving on top of the cement that it created.
It had built the foundation that it rode upon.
Created it's own ride in a sort of way.
Wow, I thought.
BIG epiphany.
Aren't we all part of the bigger picture?
A microcosm of the atmosphere?
There's water in that cement and there's water in you.
Do you recognize what's in you that's also in another?
Do you dislike something about someone else?
Take a close look, this time with patience,
and embrace that it's also somewhat in you.
We're all water.
Respect. Learn. Accept.
Build a foundation you want to stand proud upon.
Seal it with cement, then enjoy the ride you've created.
