We stayed here for only a few hours. We rested and went on. But the camera snatched this fraction of a second from the eternal flow of time and froze it forever. At this moment we didn’t know that in a few hours we would fall into an ambush. At this moment, while we were filling our canteens from the stream, we didn’t yet know that we would stay in the mountains for three days without a drop of water. We didn’t yet know anything … .Vladislav Tamarov
About This Quote
I feel so lucky. I want to share this profound feeling with you. This is the moment when two great forces of nature are in perfect harmony. We can see that in the mountains there are rocks, trees, waterfalls, and grasses.
The mountain proves that all of these things have been here since the beginning of time. Then we saw a beautiful waterfall, which was carved by time into the length of hundreds of meters. The rock gives us a rock-solid foundation to build on and serve as a foundation for our life.
Water has always flowed from the top of the mountain to the bottom, but it did not flow here today because we were there at that exact moment. Water does not always flow down the mountain, but it always flows down this mountain at some point during our lifetime. I wish we could go back to that moment and remember it forever.
