Fear
They say before entering the sea,
a river trembles with fear.
She looks back at the path
that she has traveled, from the peaks of
the mountains, the long winding road
which crosses forests and villages.
And in front of her,
she sees an ocean so vast,
that to enter there seems nothing more
than to disappear forever.
But there is no other way.
The river cannot go back.
No one can go back.
To go back is impossible in existence.
The river needs to take the risk
of entering the ocean,
because only then will fear disappear
because that is when the river will know
it's not about disappearing into the ocean,
but of becoming the ocean.
― Kahlil Gibran
