The present moment is just like a fountain. At first it looks sooo solid, but when you look at it closer you see it is constantly Changing...................into what you are thinking.

Nice. That's a great perspective on the present.

Hmmm, like the way clouds form images.

Which has interesting implications for SR. I see certain images in the water or clouds, there's a tree, over there a bunny. You see the same water or clouds, yet in your mind it's a mushroom, and that's not a bunny, it's a kitten. But the water and clouds haven't changed.

We don't see the world such as it is... but as we are...

The title of the post reminds me of the fountain during the beginning of "Friends" when they all hang out and jump in the fountain, acting as if all is merry and good.
