More From Eleanor Roosevelt

But in a way you can say that after leaving the sea, after all those millions of years of living inside of the sea, we took the ocean with us. when a woman makes a baby, she gives it water, inside her body, to grow in. that water inside her body is almost exactly the same as the water of the sea. it is salty, by just the same amount. she makes a little ocean, in her body. and not only this. our blood and our sweating, they are both salty, almost exactly like the water from the sea is salty. we carry oceans inside of us, in our blood and our sweat. and we are crying the oceans, in our tears.
Baby Ocean Sweat
Because beyond their practical function, all gestures have a meaning that exceeds the intention of those who make them; when people in bathing suits fling themselves into the water, it is joy itself that shows in the gesture, notwithstanding any sadness the divers may actually feel. when someone jumps into the water fully clothed, it is another thing entirely: the only person who jumps into the water fully clothed is a person trying to drown; and a person trying to drown does not dive headfirst; he lets himself fall: thus speaks the immemorial language of gestures.
Fall Sadness Water
Imagine a limitless expanse of water: above and below, before and behind, right and left, everywhere there is water. in that water is placed a jar filled with water. there is water inside the jar and water outside, but the jar is still there. the 'i' is the jar.
Water Jars Imagine
Take the case of the infinite ocean. there is no limit to its water. suppose a pot is immersed in it: there is water both inside and outside the pot. the jnani sees that both inside and outside there is nothing but paramatman. then what is this pot? it is 'i-consciousness'. because of the pot the water appears to be divided into two parts; because of the pot you seem to perceive an inside and an outside. one feels that way as long as this pot of 'i' exists. when the 'i' disappears, what is remains. that cannot be described in words.
Ocean Two Long
Everybody gets jolted. you, me, before we die we’ll all get nailed, lots of times. but that doesn’t mean we’ll get turned into witches. you can’t avoid getting zapped, but you can avoid passing the mean energy on. that’s the interesting thing about witches, the challenge of them-- learning not to hit back, or hit somebody else, when they zap you. you can bury the zap, for instance, like the gods buried the titans in the center of the earth. or you can be like a river when a forest fire hits it--phshhhhhhhhhhhh! just drown it, drown all the heat and let it wash away.
Mean Rivers Fire
Water is everywhere and in all living things; we cannot be seperated from water. no water, no life. period. water comes in many forms - liquid, vapor, ice, snow, fog, rain, hail. but no matter the form, it's still water.

A sudden gust of rain blew over them and then another - as if small liquid clouds were bouncing along the land. lightning entered the sea far off and the air blew full of crackling thunder. the table cloths blew around the pillars. they blew and blew and blew. the flags twisted around the red chairs like live things, the banners were ragged, the corners of the table tore off through the burbling billowing ends of the cloths.
Rain Clouds Air
Annabeth’s shoulders ached. the elevator’s easy-listening music didn’t help. if all monsters had to hear that song about liking piña coladas and getting caught in the rain, no wonder they were in the mood for carnage when they reached the mortal world.
