When I saw this prompt, the first thing that popped in my mind is this old post of mine.
Here is the post again with few minor tweaks..
A ripple is a set of reactions to a thing..
It might be a drop in a serene still pond..
It might be the leap of frog within the pond to the shore..
Let us assume this to be a single drop of water…
What is this drop of water?
What could all be this single drop of water?
It might be the source of life for an exquisite pearl…
Or it might be the last drop of tear from a parting soul…
It might be the excess condensation of a cool glass…
It might be the sweat formed of the scorching sun…
It might be the life breath for a bee..
It might be the drowning drain for an ant…
It might be the life-giver…
It might be the life taker…
Nothing is good and as well nothing is bad..
It’s not about the drop of water… It is all about the place where it drops..
When a drop of rain falls on the feathers of the Peacock,
I witness the beautiful dance of the peacock,
When a drop of rain falls in the layers of rock,
I witness the mere silence of the rock..
Beauty lies not in the object,
But in the eyes of the beholder…
If you could find the beauty around you,
Be proud that you have a beautiful heart..
Keep spreading the joy and cheer always.. 🙂

That is an interesting thought. Your response makes a thing good or bad?
Like this post could have created a very inspiring response to certain people like the dancing peacock while other might be like the stone. But what came down was the same thing, beautiful in its own way. The conscience of that drop doesn’t need a peacock or a stone to tell its real worth. We all know how precious is Water! 😉
