Maya Angelou quote

A Woman in harmony with her spirit is like a river flowing. She goes where she will without pretense and arrives at her destination prepared to be herself and only herself.

~Maya Angelou
Maya says it best.  

My "river" would be more accurately termed a creek.  At least that's what it's named--Jones Creek.  I realize I do not know how the distinction is made by those who name things.  

Here's what I found out.

"Generally, the difference is size: you can step over a brook, jump over a creek, wade across a stream, and swim across a river. But the distinction between them (especially creek and stream) is somewhat hazy, and depends on who named them and when they were named."  source

If you want a more in-depth answer to the difference between the two, you can find it here.
