The Drop and the Ocean

My Place in the World

By Anna BoisvertPublished 4 years ago Updated 4 years ago 1 min read

I am a drop in the ocean. I am one star in a universe of many. Yet I am unique.

I am energy. I am connected to everyone and everything. Yet, I am alone.

I am all the lives that came before me. I am all the lives that will be in the future. Yet I am present in this moment.

I am the storm that comes. I am the fireworks in celebration. Yet I am balance.

I am all the choices I have made. I am all the choices I did not. Yet I am free.

I am the ocean. I am the universe.

This is my place in the world.

About the Creator

Life is beautiful.

Be you. Be weird.

Musings and imaginings from the brain of a fifty something year old Gemini who sold everything and moved to Los Angeles in 2018.

    Hi Anna ~ I'm so glad that I've just discovered your gorgeous-eclectic presentations *As I scroll through them I've subscribed with pleasure hoping you'll come back to our little village soon; your style displays a terrific 'tude! I'm not a writer, just a retired legal professional; a simple storyteller to archive 'For the kids Someday.' Not into contests or self promotion. I just enjoy sketching and leading into my own stories that way. But, this one totally caught my eye since I also live in l.a. Perhaps a bit different now since you came here (6) years ago. Ya, Think...! Nice to virtually meet you ~ I'm 'Me' & 'Weird' ~ Jay Kantor, Chatsworth, California 'Senior' Vocal Author - Vocal Village Community -
