| In case you haven't realized, The mountians and the sea Are both boundless entities That cannot be overtaken. I discovered this while cascading Over an ocean of clouds. Do you suppose 30,000 feet in the air Brings us closer to the Creator? I've found that life can be More beautiful than you've ever dreamed. Even in this demolition derby we call existence. The mountians and the sea are strong Because they've found their center. Perhaps if I found my center, I could be boundless too? The inescapable truth is that we all have The capecity to be indestructible But we're trapped here In the fragility of human existence. We must become aware To be as free as the ocean We must learn to breathe To be as strong as the mountians. It is only then that we will see through The darkness inside ourselves |
