What a powerful comparison...birth, life and death! I really liked that. I can completely picture the ponds and see where you are coming from with that thought. Why are all the turtles in that first pond? I stopped counting at fifty. There are three ponds and yet they all like to live in that one. Maybe they all like the first pond because it gets the most sunlight. I guess that makes sense. Anyway, that was a great comparison which completely fits in with the whole unity theme.
