[Photograph QT] Lake

The sky is clear and the mountains are high. Quiet water does not claim to have any colour of its own, but reflects the blue of the sky. It even reflects the mountain. Is it a lake or a mountain? It is an exact representation of the sky.  There is nothing to say to the mountain. Just like a mirror, it illuminates everything that passes by. What does water contain in its depth? Can’t my heart be as soft as water? Can I be generous, gentle, kind, relaxed, accepting and tolerant like the water? I found it hard to leave the lake behind.
