Also it will never be a perfect path it will have a lot of twist and curves and sometimes it will be filled and flowing smoothly but other times it will be low and barley moving. Norman says "The river was cut by the world's great flood and runs over rocks form the basement of times." Maclean 104.This shows that just like life it flows and will never stop flowing even though it goes over bumps in the road.
