Spiritual Forums - fear river and ocean

Great Quote by Famous Labenese Poet Khalil Gibran

Code:

It is said that before entering the sea

a river trembles with fear.



She looks back at the path she has traveled,

from the peaks of the mountains,

the long winding road crossing 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 can not go back.



Nobody 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’s where the river will know

it’s not about disappearing into the ocean,

but of becoming the ocean.
