Colorchallenge Thursday Green - Meditation On Tranquility

Far Eastern philosophy dictates that we should be like the Lotus flower. It begins as a seed buried in the muck of decayed material at the bottom of the pool. It rises upward out of the muck and up through the water until it reaches air, where it blossoms and opens up to the light of the Sun. It stays focused on, and receives nourishment from, the Sun, while remaining rooted to the muck at the bottom of the pool, never forgetting it's roots.

I enjoyed a nice, peaceful moment by this pool in West Virginia, U.S.
