Niagara Falls

Powerful and Enlightening! I started on the U.S side and then took the “Madden of the Mist” boat into the Falls. What an awesome experience! Do NOT miss out on this! The rocking on the boat from the turbulence, the sounds of massive water rushing all around you as the mist soaks you, is flat out an experience you will never forget.  I was in awe at the power of every sense being used!

I decided to walk across Rainbow Bridge, which separates the U.S and Canada to see the falls head on. The Canadian side offers a completely different perspective. 

It reminds me of life and how we as humans see things from different viewpoints.  If we don’t take the time to see life from different angles we may miss out on a lesson, experience or angle we may never have known is there. How often do we think we know something until we get a new viewpoint, which can lead us to a new outlook? Had I not taken the time to walk to the Canadian side, I would have only seen the Falls from one angle. Yet, because I saw them from the side they flow U.S side), the bottom looking up, and from the side across.( Canadian side), to get a full view, I would not have been able to truly see all the beauty that was offered.

Something to ponder; look at life in this way, because there is ALWAYS more than one viewpoint in life. We may learn more than expected and grow from it. Life is a series of perspectives that enhance our love of everything that impacts us. This is another aspect I am learning to appreciate.
