Story of a little ocean wave

The story is about a little wave, bobbing along in the ocean, having a grand time. He's enjoying the wind and fresh air - until he notices the other waves in front of him crashing against the shore.

My God this is terrible, the wave says Look what's going to happen to me!

Then along comes another wave. It sees the first wave, looking grim, and it says to him, Why do you look so sad?

The first wave says, You don't understand! We're all going to crash! All of us waves are going to be nothing! Isn't it terrible?

The second wave says, "No, you don't understand. You're not a wave, you're part of the ocean."

Food for your Brain:
  • Have you ever faced the inevitable reality of the shore?
  • What was the first wave's initial response to change?
  • What negative things can come out of watching the other waves crash in front?
  • What positive things can come out of watching the other waves crash in front?
  • How different will the first wave be AFTER crashing on the shore?
  • Who is this second wave guy?
  • Why is he important?
  • What does it mean to be part of the ocean?
  • Do we human beings on this planet realize that we are all tiny particles of water drops in this ocean called humanity and we are a part of this wave called human civilization..?
THINK!
Take care to preserve yourself & to preserve humanity.
