We went out to the Como Zoo conservatory last weekend, and I took these pictures of light playing across the rippling water, and the koi fish feeding at the surface. It was very peaceful, and put me in an Far Eastern state of mind, so I pulled a relevant quote from the 8th chapter of the Tao Te Ching and laid it on top. (I hope it's the eighth chapter - I don't speak a word of Chinese.) The rough translation of the pertinent verse is:
The highest goodness resembles water.
Water greatly benefits myriad things without conflict, and
It stays in places that people dislike.
Therefore, it's way is similar to the Tao
The highest goodness resembles water.

Make on, people!
