The Highway Sets the Traveler's Stage



As I watched this jellyfish float around in a tank at the Monterey Bay Aquarium, I couldn't help but think about how jealous I was of this fish. This jellyfish looks so simple, swims with flow of the water in the tank, all in harmony with the other jellyfish.

I wish my life was simple. I wish I could go with the flow of things, in harmony with everyone in this world. I wish life magically worked itself out, life were easy.

But than again, the jellyfish is confined to the box its in. It will no longer be able to explore the depths of the ocean, see life the way it was created for. This jellyfish must be going nuts.

I feel that  complaining, grumbling, and whining on this computer about how crappy my life is, is equivalent to confining myself in a box. There is so much in the world to experience; events to see, people to meet, and so much life to learn. Take a step outside. I dare you. The change starts with you.
