Water Drop and the Two Points of View

This morning I received a nice email from one of my friends. It said,

If a drop of water falls in to a lake, it has no identity. But if it falls on to a rose, it shines.
So choose where you want to fall.

Thinking a little bit more along the lines, the other side of it occurred to me.

Though the drop of water on the rose shines, it is lonely. And though the drop of water in the lake does not shines, but it will be surrounded by friends and family.
So choose where you want to fall, and more importantly WHEN.
