REVELATION AT A STREAM

Sitting in a patch of grass alongside a mountain stream, I became acutely aware all of a sudden of how everything there was changing.  The stream was flowing steadily, the sun was descending into the trees, the air was hot one moment and then cool.

The one thought that I kept coming back to, however, was that nothing there, the stream, the sun, the air, but then also the birds and insects, nothing was aware of all the changing.  Nothing else realized that every moment it was becoming something else.
