depends

so much depends
upon

a red wheel
barrow

glazed with rain

What does this mean? I heard a radio show this morning that used this poem to test some guys in a quiz. It's about a wheel barrow ...
What we See in things has become a whole industry. Reading into and over a situation sometimes we miss it alltogether.
We miss the things that are simple and pure because we rap them all in some deep meaning. It just is. life, breath, wind, sun, hope, love, laughter, birdsong, cat mews, all just ARE as they ARE.
There needs to be no deep meaning to have value. We are just because we are. We have life and purpose and joy and it is good.
you can't buy that sense of your 'whyness' you just accept it and say...yea! There's work to be done!
God abide
