Ocean refuses no river

Its told that the river usually quivers before it joins the ocean. She slows down as it nears the end. Witnessing something infinite do shake her for once. Maybe due a fear of something unknown or being lost in a vast sea. The fear of losing the familiar shore, and embracing uncertainty. In the cocoon of the comfort zone, a fear of change seizes her, like roots overgrown . The fear of an uncharted space like a novel world where you have no deadens and all you can see is the horizon. Now, deep inside she knew if she would move forward, it would risk her own existence. That's when the realization hits you that at the end of every journey may not be a destination we dreamt. And that's why its told that every story is about the journey and not just the destination itself. So we cherish the journey, for it's in the wandering, we find our grace. The beauty of travel, in every mile is an adventure, in the river's smile.
