The Balancing Act

A boy tries to balance on a free floating chunk of glacier ice close to shore. The water is so cold it actually hurts once in contact. He didn't make it. Down he went to his knees. We all ran up to help him. Boys, what will you do with them. I know trade them in for a girl . Children are special and so are the lessons in life they learn with you at their side after the fall.

    tip of the iceberg. greater falls will come… if he's lucky, he will always have someone at his side to help him up again and… hang him near the fire to dry. ; )) great capture of the little swinger of birches, rider of icy chunks, walking a tightrope between success and failure. greetings, sabine.

    Getting back on our feet and try again (in this case better not try again :)) after falling is something we all had to learn. Wonderful picture!
