With one thing so deep, dark and mysterious such as the ocean how can one not wonder what is really laying on the bottom; or to ponder if there is a bottom of ocean. There is only one equivalent to such a wonder and that would be the human soul. The soul is what makes us human, it’s what makes us people with different out looks to life and how we view the world. Not one person thinks the exact same and not two people feel and see the same. We are to each it’s own, we just cross our fingers and hope we are doing the right thing. No one can love the same yet two people can fall in love in matter of months and be together for years. Not one person has the same outlook on life but we can always find a common ground for approval. The human soul is an unexplained, mysterious, and dark existence that is inside of every human. It is what makes us get up in the morning and fall in love with the person your with every day no matter how long you have been together. It makes us listen when someone needs to talk; it makes us care about the people around us. Our soul is what makes us human it allows us to feel pain when we don’t want to, it allows us laugh when we just want to break down and cry. It gives us strength when we just want to quit. But most of all our soul gives faith that tomorrow is a new day, a fresh start and a new beginning to challenge ourselves once again and to see how far we can push to reach our goals in life. So then the question would be what are the goals in our lives? Will our goals improve the way we live our life or is it just a temporary goal that you scribble down on a napkin and put away for another day? With every new day there is a new thing to do and new task to get done, but at the end of our endless lists what happens then? Do just stop and wait for a new day to come so we can do all the same things over again? Whatever happened to just taking one day at a time and resting, we are so caught up in today’s society that we forget to just relax and re charge. Everything is so go, go, go... that we may forget to say I love you when we run out the door, or we may be in such a rush that we don’t have the time just to open up the door for someone else. Have we lost the true meaning of love thy neighbour as thy self? Or have we just lost who we are as people and just came human bodies running around making sure we get everything done in the day. Have our souls been compromised to the twenty first century living. We are so caught up in keeping up with the Jones that we forgot just to keep up with ourselves. The ocean is one thing that we can get lost in, but to get lost in the way of life that we lose ourselves in another. Our souls will always be there no matter how caught up get in the moment. It is our little voice in our head that does say to just slow down and look at the bigger picture. It’s what makes us who we are, it reminds us to tell our love ones that we love them every day. It gives us the push to grab the door for someone else, and most importantly it lets us fall in love and to love thy neighbour as thy self.
