A dead fish in the mighty ocean.
When the world was busy questioning its presence, someone asked how I see myself in five years. Lacking the sources to answer this question, I failed to have a precise answer. Searching and rewinding all possible answers I’ve ever heard, nothing felt compatible. In the era of brief descriptions, I felt dumb as I didn’t have an acceptable answer, that further pushed me into a state of pointless dumbness. I know I am a person who goes with the flow of life. This contradicts many sayings involved in proving uniqueness, following the crowd for existence, only a dead fish goes with the flow of life. In my opinion, just setting up goals that may be unique isn’t unique, as every other person may walk through the “following goal” way ignoring everything around them with a similar framework. The go with the flow people, don’t just walk idle among the crowd. They possess vision beyond the path they travel. They unwind the opportunistic stones that are buried all along the way they travel and are daring to face all the undesirable circumstances of life. They are incorporated with an optimal flexibility to take up what feels the best for them and keep mobilizing with a rage that may overtake their capabilities and fly high. They’re energized to lift any boulder and sculpt it into a valuable treasure. Despite contradicting the life path of the majority of homo sapiens, one should accept the presence of a goal-less person in an uncriticized way and understand that they’re there to create something incredible. Might be a dead fish, but the mighty ocean imbibes all its might and courage to sustain, prosper and lead. I don’t choose the ocean, the ocean chooses me, for I am the mighty fish.
