Ocean Philosophy

Ocean Philosophy

 

Choices are like an ocean

Once you are all in

you must swim or sink.

 

Ah, but you ask

what about a raft,

a boat, or a cruise ship?

 

Well, if you’re aboard one of those

or are expecting one to arrive shortly

you never really were all in, or you chose 

to hand over your destiny to someone else.

 

Wait, what if I bring my snorkel, fins and goggles

and maybe my Scuba gear. Great, but

there are sharks in the water

and your tank will run empty.

 

If I do make a choice

and I’m truly all in

where do I end up?

 

Well, choose poorly and you may

end up on a deserted, desert island 

for the rest of your life.

 

Choose wisely and simply 

assess the distance,dive in 

and swim to your goal. 

 

But, if you\'re like me and can’t swim

sit by the ocean, catch a few rays

and watch the fools in the water.
