Life is like a ripple on the shore

I sat on the beach in Florida and got mesmerised by watching the ocean waves. And I played a game.

Considering the world exist since millions of years, then a life of a person represents only a fraction of a moment in the life span of the eternity. Watching the waves on the shore of the ocean, seeing its formation taking intensity and then slowly or roughly coming to extinguishment, it reminds me of a life of a person.

I see a long strong one that went on for a mile on the shore. And I thought of JFK

A very long and ever so gentle: that must have been mother Theresa

A rough and gutsy one that swallowed other ones on its way: Al Capone.

A tall and elegant with a little sexy twirl that not sooner it went up it collapsed. I think that was Marilyn Monroe.

And then there was the one that kept on hopping high and low, fainting and flirting with the ocean itself. And I thought of Robin Williams.

We are a ripple on earth compared to the universe. Make the ripple last into a long wave by making a difference in our tiny existence

I let my mind play the game for a while.
