I think I need to accept
settling down is not a notion
I will never settle down
I am like the ocean
I float and I drift
looking for a drop-off point
or a wave’s lift
I think I need to accept
that I am jetsam and flotsam
I am part of the waves and their motion
and that is all I ever am
never settling down
I sink or swim
but I never drown.

Sounds exciting! Glad to know you can float sometimes, too.

There is an “i” in floating, so floating can be fun.

Very nice, Harlon! 🙂
Often when thinking takes place, “this movement” is used instead of the symbol “I”; which is very likely much more prudent!

Love the metaphor, Harlon.
“I am part of the waves and their motion”
~ Profound insight.
Lest we forget, our Spaceship Earth not only rotates on its own axis, but also around the Sun at the center of our Solar System. We are constantly in motion. “Settling down” is an illusion.

I agree, but sometimes my mind wanders, but yes, settling down is quite simply an illusion.
Moving forward with love towards you Rosaliene. 🙂 Harlon
