The water droplets hanging on for dear life from these sinewy leaves tell a tale that might be yours or mine.The inclination to hang on to what's known and resist from trying what's not, pervades the vast majority of us.
We tend to over-estimate our risks and under-estimate our upsides. This is a perfect recipe for maintaining status quo, however sad the current reality might be. Too many people languish in their current jobs, & current lives because changing it means opening themselves to an unknown future - it might be better, but hell, it could get worse too!
When I saw this drop resisting gravity and sticking to the familiar embrace of the leaf, its resemblance to my life and of many I know hit home - and it hit hard.
