Ocean Water May

More From Mahatma Gandhi

Listen, o drop, give yourself up without regret, and in exchange gain the ocean. listen, o drop, bestow upon yourself this honor, and in the arms of the sea be secure. who indeed should be so fortunate? an ocean wooing a drop! in god's name, in god's name, sell and buy at once! give a drop, and take this sea full of pearls.
Regret Ocean Sea
The little mute boy the little boy was looking for his voice. (the king of the crickets had it.) in a drop of water the little boy was looking for his voice. i do not want it for speaking with; i will make a ring of it so that he may wear my silence on his little finger in a drop of water the little boy was looking for his voice. (the captive voice, far away, put on a cricket's clothes.) translated by william s. merwin

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
Coral reefs, the rain forest of the ocean, are home for one-third of the species of the sea. coral reefs are under stress for several reasons, including warming of the ocean, but especially because of ocean acidification, a direct effect of added carbon dioxide. ocean life dependent on carbonate shells and skeletons is threatened by dissolution as the ocean becomes more acid.

Everyone has faith in god though everyone does not know it. for everyone has faith in himself and that multiplied to the nth degree is god. the sum total of all that lives is god. we may not be god, but we are of god, even as a little drop of water is of the ocean.

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.

The best i can hope for is that i might provoke a water cooler argument between you and somebody else. but it is not journalism. it doesn't have the rigor of journalism. it doesn't have the proof positive that facts provide. so it can be readily dismissed as mere propaganda. but i can certainly reach more people.

Truth is what every man sees lurking at the bottom of his own soul, like the oyster shell housewives put in the kitchen kettle to collect the lime from the water. by and by each man's iridescent oyster shell of truth becomes coated with the lime of prejudice and hearsay.
