Description
I found a verse in a book and began to reflect on the many things I take for granted. Here is the verse-
"Contentment isn't getting what we want but being satisfied with what we have."
This was taken months ago (April) but I had forgotten all about it. I'm adding to my gallery now because it seems to fit my mood, lately.
All comments greatly appreciated.

There is great beauty in simplicity.If we only take the time to step back a bit,we will realise,that most of what we need...or want...we already have.Beautiful 'reflections' Jodie.-M :^)
It does seem to fit the verse - beauty is reflected back to you as long as you don't throw stones and cause ripples.
That lake is mirror surfaced, isn't it! The post work is nicely done, too. FIVE STARS
Odie, what a stunning mirror effect! Clear water with nary a ripple to be seen. Words fail me! How bucolic! Harry the Hugger
