The way of the fish
is the way of the vagabond.
The whole of the sea is my home. I trust the currents —
I trust the etheric currents
of all that is
The pull of the tide is the pull of time
The wise fish does not fight the current
But learns to trust and swim with her pull
Opening, opening, opening its sphere of consciousness
Its sense of self
To merge with the current
To make its will one with the tide
To listen to its wisdom —
To trust.
I am remote.
I feel remote.
My heart is pulled by something far greater than I
And my mortal mind struggles to make sense of it
But see?
It is this —
Why fight, why struggle?
Wisdom is in learning
That even riptides
Need us to swim with them.
Fight it, fight it, fight it
You will drown.
I care not where your life is taking you
Nor where it has taken you
Nor what it has taken from you
Swim with the current, and trust.
For,
I promise you,
You will be led home.
