This work signifies the transitory nature of relationships. People in our lives are like water in a stream; some get caught briefly in a back eddy and are part of our lives until a current floats them away and others are caught and held fast for a longer time. This transitory nature often seems to be not the result of a particular reason, rather the peculiarities of life. People change, things change, life changes and these relationships are no more.
