The path of life is seen with two eyes: 
one reviews the footprint, another imagines the destination, but true joy is found in smelling the wet leaf of the present ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ.

O camiรฑo da vida mรญrase con dous ollos:
un revisa a pegada, outro imaxina o destino, mais a verdadeira ledicia atรณpase en cheirala folla mollada do agora.

Green grass on a hill in front a path leading towards a forest โ€ฆ a wooden bench is beside the path, facing the view.  Behind the forest are darker pines and distant hills.. the sky is blue with scattered white clouds.

Ein breiter Sandstrand mit einzelnen Steinen am Wasser, der sich nach rechts zum Horizont hin erstreckt. Links grenzt dichter, grรผner Laubwald an den Strand. Der Himmel ist klar und zeigt die Farben eines Sonnenuntergangs mit einem orangefarbenen Streifen am Horizont. Am Strand sind einige kleine Menschen in der Ferne zu sehen.
