Journal Entry: The Unseen Tides of Existence

He came, He lingered, He learned, He inspired. #StandOut

Today, my thoughts are like a boat navigating through a stormy sea, finding moments of peace between the waves and the wind. The boat, small againist the vast ocean, withstands the storm with a strength that reminds me of my own journey. It’s amazing how it manages to stay afloat, constantly hit by the elements but never completely overwhelmed. There’s something beautiful about its resilience, a silent story of enduring and gracefully handling life’s chaos.

Living Off The Grid

I’ve been thinking about people who, like this boat, move through life against the expected currently. One person chose to step away from the path of duty and country, living in the shadows of society instead. His silent rebellion shows the bravery needed to stand by your beliefs, even if it means walking alone. Another, lured by the promise of freedom, found himself trapped by time, living a life outside the usual lines, unseen but very much a part of our world’s fabric.

Then there’s the story of someone born in America, with every right to be seen, yet choosing the anonymity of the streets over the false sense of belonging. His life questions the real meaning of freedom, challenging the norm and showing that sometimes, being unseen is a choice.

These stories are just small parts of the vast human experience, showing the endless ways we seek freedom and refuse to be confined by man-made limits.

In The Beginning, everything was chaos, a blank space waiting for life to be breathed into it. This reminds me of the potential hidden in dark places, waiting for a chance to grow and shine. But as we move forward, we often forget the source of true nourishment, the Living Water that quenches our deepest thirst. We’ve turned away from the essence of life, chasing after illusions that leave us empty.

The offer of Living Water, a Gift that’s always there, is often overlooked in our busy lives. It’s more than just a drink; it’s a connection to something bigger, a never-ending source of Joy, even in the driest places.

Looking at the world, with all its conflicts and pain, it’s hard to find the balance between helping others and staying true to ourselves. The struggle between duty and belief, action and inaction, is always there, guiding us.

Unapologetically My Tribe

In my quiet moments, I’ve found a community online, a place where different minds and spirits come together. This virtual space has become a refuge, where the unseen and unheard can share and be acknowledged.

But even with this sense of connection, there’s a feeling of floating alone, surrounded by many but not fully anchored. The search for a place where we truly belong, in a real, physical sense, continues, highlighting our basic need for real connection.

Writing this down, I’m struck by the complexity of life, the mix of light and dark that shapes our journey. Like the boat on the stormy sea, we’re all travely through life, trying to find calm waters in the vast, shared human experience.
