Beloved And The Sea

Swim into the sea of relationships and see how plants and animals behave. Among their own species, they live in unity and conflict. Swim into the sea of relationships between man and woman. Homo sapiens, as they are, they too relate in conflict and unity. For now they declare their love in marriage and tomorrow they dissolve their vows, rejecting the beloved. Oh, this sea of relationships among humans - in harmony and conflict, in pain and sorrow, in joy, embrace and bed of tears! 'Is there another sea where we can swim and bathe', the poet asked. The owl, up the tree, answered, 'No! Learn to embrace the lonely sea! ' ___________________
