Tiny Wooden Boat

Self-exploration

While I am normally fond of the limelight, I have instead chosen to befriend the shadow zone in a sea of pellucidity. Clinging onto my invisible veil, I venture out to discover what lies beneath. Like never before, I trust my tiny wooden boat to guide me on this journey of self-exploration, no matter the nature or versatility of storms and distractions along the way. And how could I not? With its steady, purposeful sails and stubborn buoyancy, it has consistently remained above the waterline when it truly should have been submerged. It has continued on, despite several, abrupt changes in the direction of prevailing winds. Although I have not yet reached my final destination, I have come upon some intricate jewels of realization, my favorite one being: it is forgiveness that propels all vessels forward.

    I’m I’m honored to be the first comment. I’m even more grateful to have read such a deep expression of self. I’m lucky to have been directed here and to read the last line, although I gravitate towards the first sentence and it’s meaning. You are wonderful.
