“Worldly Life Is Just Like A Dream”

Worldly life is just like a dream.
Hardship comes from our serious recklessness in dream.
Long dream or short dream are all sort of drams.
When we suddenly wake up, where can we find the existence of dream?

——– (Ancient Chinese Poem from Six Chapters of a Floating Life) ———

人生世间一大梦,梦里胡为苦认真。
梦短梦长俱是梦,忽然一觉梦何存?
《浮生六记》

Special Note

A Beautiful message from the photographer on this image:

“Water, lapping, whispering on the rocks of the tidepool
as dawn awakens from the night’s slumber.”
