The Story of the Pebbles

Many pebbles find themselves in turbulent shores. 

But some are lucky to be in quiet shores.

Some find their destiny beneath the ocean. 

Others find their place near the skies.

Some pebbles find themselves useful for walks among trees.

Some find their uses in grand highways.

Many become part of stairs where few people pass. 

Some become part of steps for beautiful people to stay. 

Some pebbles are destined to be part of something great like the Pyramids. 

Some become part of something that last through time like the Great wall of China.

You see… Even pebbles aspire to be great. 

They aspire to become part of something as high as the Empire state building.

Or to be part of something as grand as the Taj Mahal.

Or of something as wonderful as the Banawe Rice Terraces.

Or of one as beautiful as this Michael Angelo's La Pieta.

Or of one simply as free as this the pebbles lying in the sea shore.

Now what about you? What kind of pebble are you?
