Waves
I was supposed to go to the ocean yesterday and while I laid in bed thinking about my plannned trip my thoughts drifted to waves, and how beautiful and relaxing they are, yet ultimately destructive. The constant motion moving things both small and large. Causing friction that over time wears even the largest rocks down to sand. The motion of the tides always in sync, predictable and soothing to hear, calming to watch.
I thought of it in terms of my life. I have been a rock in the ocean. Rolled around, worn down, so softly that I didn't notice it at first. Smoothed out I thought once, shaped into what I had desired to become. But the friction became abrasive and harsh. I became smaller and smaller until I felt broken. Not at all what I had wanted to be. Changed by my surroundings not my will.
I realized that what I really wish to be is the water, not the rock. Flowing, changeable but constant, carrying others with ease, smoothing down rough patches, breaking upon the shore without really breaking at all, shaping my own destiny, yet going with the flow.
So I attempt to morph from rock to water, without losing heart.
