Rather than continue to battle monster birds, the King of Swords takes a different approach by feeding their young. Hurt someone's family, and you've made an enemy for life; help their family, and friendship becomes a possibility. The King refuses to stay locked in the emotional past and chooses to use a bit of ingenuity instead. A realistic view creates clarity and allows for a wise response. The Rainbow is a phenomenon created when certain conditions and causes come together - the refraction of light by water droplets in the air. It doesn't last very long. The rainbow is like our emotions; both will naturally disperse unless we take a picture in the mind and replay it over and over. Only when we stop clinging can we see the other wonders and opportunities around us.
Although there are rocks and tree roots,
Rippling along, just rippling along,
The water runs.
