Are there areas of your life that you want to delve deeper into? In the calm stillness and peacefulness of a summer pond or lake, you can reflect on your own life and illusions. What do you reflect to others? What is below your surface? Are you deep or shallow? Warm or cold? Inviting or frightening? Reflect on the mystery that is you.
