In the Waters Lies All Healing
The people of old said all healing dwells within the waters. Water cleanses the body, soothes the weary, and gives strength to begin anew.
With what do I wash a weary, stained heart back to clearness?
📝Reflection
As water washes the body, some things wash the heart. The poet sang that 'all healing' lies in the waters, naming water's two faces — it rinses away filth and revives the weary by moistening them. I feel the heart needs such washing too. Left as they are, the day's stains, piled resentments, and hardened fatigue cloud the mind. Walking, sleep, tears, prayer — each of us has a water that washes the heart. What matters is not deferring the washing. As pooled water rots, an unwashed heart hardens.
🌱Apply It Today
If your heart clouded today, before sleep pass it once through your own 'washing water' — a walk, a shower, tears, or a talk.
This verse is read as universal humanistic wisdom, not religion — no faith is promoted, and the reflection is 100% original ONGO content.
