Sometimes, the edges between land and water are well-defined.
Sometimes, the boundary line between two dichotomies is easily defined.
Here is water – fluid, wet, flowing. And here is land – dry, static, still.
Things can be that clear, and that simple.
But what happens, when the lines get blurred?
When one blends into the other, without a clear and distinct boundary?
When one reflects the other; when someone holds a mirror up to us?
What do we perceive? What are we willing to see?
Are we able to blend dichotomies, live beyond either-or, give up our need for certainty and definition?
Walk in the beauty of oneness?

Sometimes lines do get blurrred and we need to be accepting. Lovely photo!

I actually like it when the lines get blurred because it breaks up the black/white thinking that our culture seems to prefer.

I think that land is quite fluid as well. Once I learned about edges being the most abundant places on our mother earth.

Thanks for your comment, Rhet. Yes, the edges are very rich, in all domains, really. I wrote a post a little while ago on edges and was reminded of it through your comment: https://beautyalongtheroad.wordpress.com/2014/08/29/on-the-edges/
