Even if you have no direction for now, you can still live beautifully.
Duckweed drifts on the surface of the water, moving with the current. It has no tall branches, and no need to draw anyone's eye.
A traveler arrived in an unfamiliar city, and a heavy rain washed away all her carefully made plans.
She was disappointed at first, but then simply walked into a café and sat by the window, watching the rain.
To her surprise, the traveler at the next table struck up a conversation. They shared many delightful travel stories, and she even learned about a restaurant only locals know.
She smiled and thought, 'So an itinerary doesn't always have to beat the weather.'
Duckweed reminds us that life need not follow the plan at every step. Sometimes, flowing with life brings lovely arrangements of its own.
Fortune and safety, a peaceful heart — wherever you go, you will find your own scenery.
