The River Cannot Go Back  -  Kahlil Gibran 

It is said that before entering the sea

a river trembles with fear.

She looks back at the path she has traveled,

from the peaks of the mountains,

the long winding road crossing forests and villages.

And in front of her,

she sees an ocean so vast,

that to enter

there seems nothing more than to disappear forever.

But there is no other way.

The river can not go back.

Nobody can go back.

To go back is impossible in existence.

The river needs to take the risk

of entering the ocean

because only then will fear disappear,

because that’s where the river will know

it’s not about disappearing into the ocean,

but of becoming the ocean.

Up, upper, uppam!

UP to you to believe it or not… 🤔😝

One word in the English language that could be a noun, verb, adj, adv, prep is "UP".

    Read until the end... you'll have a good laugh !!!

    This two-letter word in English has more meanings than any other two-letter word.  That word is, 'UP'.  It is listed in the dictionary as an [adv], [prep], [adj], [n] or [v].

      It's easy to understand UP, meaning toward the sky or at the top of the list, but when we awaken in the morning, why do we wake UP?

    At a meeting, why does a topic come UP?  Why do we speak 'UP', and why are the officers UP for election, if there is a tie, it is a toss UP, and why is it UP to the secretary to write UP a report ?    

    We call UP our friends, brighten UP a room, polish UP the silver, warm UP the leftovers and clean UP the kitchen.  We lock UP the house and fix UP the old car.

    At other times, this little word has real special meaning.  People stir UP trouble, line UP for tickets, work UP an appetite, and think UP excuses.

    To be dressed is one thing, but to be dressed UP is special.

    And this UP can be confusing. A drain must be opened UP because it is blocked UP !!!

    We open UP a store in the morning, but we close it UP at night.  We seem to be pretty mixed UP about UP !!!

    To be knowledgeable about the proper uses of UP, look UP the word UP in the dictionary.  In a desk-sized dictionary, it takes UP almost 1/4 of the page and can add UP to about thirty definitions !!!

    If you are UP to it, you might try building UP a list of the many ways UP is used.  It will take UP a lot of your time, but if you don't give UP, you may wind UP with, UP to, a hundred or more.

    When it threatens to rain, we say it is clouding UP. When the sun comes out, we say it is clearing UP.  When it rains, it soaks UP the earth. When it does not rain for awhile, things dry UP.

    One could go on and on, but I'll wrap it UP, for now...... my time is UP!

    So, did this whole thing, crack you UP?🤩

Send this on to someone you look UP in your group .... or not... it's UP to you. 😃🤭🤪😂😂😂
