Read the following article and answer the question. Article: A little stream flowed down from a high mountain far, far away through many villages and forests, until it reached a desert.

You stick to the fact that you're a river because you don't know your inner nature," answered the desert. Deep down, the stream vaguely remembered that before she became a river, it was perhaps also the breeze that carried her halfway up a high mountain, where she turned into rain and fell onto the ground and became what she was now.
