Circumstances

The placid waters of the river, harbouring deep secrets...so still, so peaceful...almost giving the impression of a content life...the stretch goes on and on and a feeling of calm envelopes the mind.. Wishing one's life is as unflappable as the waters.

As one glides by the stretch of water, the serenity is invaded by a sound of urgency, of an invasion of silence...of water falling from a height...and the same unruffled water becomes furious, falling with intensity, a determination to survive and come out from the turmoil...victorious.

Makes one wonder whether the way people react depends on circumstances...and it's the situation which makes a person calm, ferocious, restless or angry.
