LIFE & PUDDLES, LAKES, AND OCEANS THAT COME ALONG THE WAY

THIS IS SOMETHING I WROTE LONG AGO, AND POSTED ON FACEBOOK. I SEE FIT TO REPOST IT TODAY, DUNNO WHY I JUST FEEL LIKE POSTING IT!


PUDDLES, LAKES, AND OCEANS, BE CAREFUL WHICH BODY OF WATER YOU CHOSE TO STEP IN OR TRAVEL...

PUDDLES OFTEN COME WHEN THERE APPEARS TO BE NO SUN IN YOUR LIFE OR THEIRS. IT DOESNT TAKE MUCH FOR A PUDDLE TO BE FORMED AND IT DOESNT TAKE LONG TO CROSS A PUDDLE, THEY ARE A QUICK FIX AND JUMPING INTO THEM WHEN YOU ARE DOWN MAY EVEN BRIGHTEN YOU UP... BUT HOW LONG WILL THEY STICK AROUND. SEE PUDDLES OFTEN THINK OF THEMSELVES AND ONLY COME AROUND YOU WHEN THERES STORMS IN YOUR WORLD...BUT OFTEN DISAPPEAR WHEN THE SUN IS IN THERES. AND EVERTIME IT RAINS YOU ARE SURE TO FIND ANOTHER. THEY CAN EVEN BE CREATED WITH WATER HOSES.

LAKES ON THE OTHER HAND TAKE A LOT LONGER TO FORM AND CAN RUN A LOT DEEPER. THOUGH IT SEEMS HARD, THOSE WHO PUT IN WORK CAN ACTUALLY SURVIVE AND PREPARE THEMSELVES TO SWIM ACCROSS A LAKE. JUST LIKE PUDDLES, WITH THE RIGHT CONDITIONS AND WITHOUT CONTINUOUS REPLENISHMENT OF H20 A LAKE CAN BECOME EXTINCT, THEY CAN DRY UP JUST LIKE THEY WERE NEVER THERE. THEY CAN ALSO FREEZE SOLID

OCEANS THE BIGGEST OF THEM ALL HAVE TAKEN THOUSANDS OF YEARS TO FORM... AND THOUGH THEY LOSE WATER TO EVAPORATION, THE LIFECYCLE OF AN OCEAN IS ALWAYS REPLENISHED AT A HIGH RATE...THE MOST DANGEROUS OF THESE BODIES OF WATER AS WELL, OCEANS ARE FILLED WITH ICEBERGS, HURRICANES, TYPHOONS, AND THOUSANDS OF SPECIES OF ANIMALS, MANY WHICH ARE VERY DANGEROUS...YOU WONT FIND ANYONE THAT CAN SWIM AN ENTIRE OCEAN THROUGH THE LONGEST POINT.

BUT STILL I SAY IF YOU WANT TO SURVIVE... THROW YOURSELF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE BIGGEST OCEAN YOU CAN FIND AND SWIM FOR YOUR LIFE.

PUDDLES ARE SHALLOW PEOPLE WHO COME AND GO AND ONLY THINK OF THEMSELVES. THEY SIT IDLE AND GIVE YOU NOTHING AS THE WORLD AROUND YOU COLLAPSES. THEY WILL LEAVE YOU AS SOON AS CONDITIONS CHANGE AND THEY CANT HANDLE THINGS IN YOUR LIFE...YOU WONT MISS THEM IF THEY ARE GONE BECAUSE ANOTHER IS ONLY A FEW FEET AWAY ON RAINY DAYS. THE REASON YOU CAN MAKE PUDDLES WITH A HOSE IS BECAUSE ITS A FALSE BODY OF WATER THAT CAN BE CREATED AT ANY RANDOM ASS TIME. IT DOESNT TAKE MUCH TO GET ONE..THEY HAPPEN SO OFTEN AND ARENT REALLY SIGNIFICANT

THOUGH LAKES ARE BIGGER THEY ARE STILL PUDDLES IN A SENSE.. THEY ARE PEOPLE WHO MAKE THEMSELVES APPEAR TO BE MORE THAN THEY ARE IN YOUR LIFE...MASKING THEMSELVES AS BIG BODIES OF WATER SUCH AS OCEANS THEY MAKE A FALSE PRESENCE IN YOUR LIFE. STILL IDLE BODIES OF WATER WITH A LITTLE MORE TO OFFER BUT NOT QUITE AN OCEAN.LAKES CAN BE EASILY NAVIGATED AND EASILY CROSSED IN SOMETHING AS SIMPLE AS A CANOE OR JET SKI. AND MANY LIKE TO TAKE A DIP IN THEM JUST TO ENJOY THE MOMENT.

THE WATERS OF THE OCEAN ARE MORE TREACHEROUS AND TAKE MUCH LONGER TO FORM..THEY ARE REPLENISHED BY RIVERS THAT ARE IN CONSTANT FLOW.IN ORDER TO EXIST IN OCEANS ONE HAS TO BE DEDICATED TO FIGHTING THROUGH THE STORMS, OF HURRICANES AND TYPHOONS...(TROUBLED WATERS OF FIGHTING) ONE HAS TO BE READY FOR THE SHARKS AND EELS IN THE WATER(HATERS) IF YOU HIT AN ICEBERG YOU MUST FIGHT AND LOVE ENDLESSLY LIKE JACK AND ROSE... (IF YOU LOVE ONE ANOTHER DO SO TILL THE END) YOU SHOULD NEVER LOOK FOR THE QUICK FIX OR THE EASIEST WAY TO GET ACROSS THESE TROUBLED TIMES... BE SMART IN THE OCEAN, IT CAN DEVOUR YOU. DONT ENTER TO QUICKLY AND ONCE YOU DO, DONT ENTER FALSE HEARTEDLY BECAUSE YOU WILL BE DISCOVERED AND PROBABLY DROWN.. NO MATTER HOW ROUGH IT GETS YOUR OCEAN IS GOING TO BE AROUND IF ITS TRUE. IT WONT EVAPORATE ON YOU. CONDENSATION ALWAYS REFILLS IT...RIVERS ALWAYS BRING WATER BACK.

DONT JUMP INTO A PUDDLE BECAUSE ITS THE SURE THING TO CONQUER, DONT FLOAT ON A LAKE BECAUSE YOU ARE CONTENT AND THINK ITS BIG ENOUGH AND YOU CAN SKATE BY..GET YOUR SCUBA GEAR AND DIVE HEADFIRST IN THE MIDDLE OF YOUR OCEAN AND BREATHE NIGGA, BREATHE.

SURVIVING A PUDDLE OR LAKE IS OK FOR THE SHORT RUN, BUT YOU HAVE TO LOVE HARD ENOUGH TO CO-EXIST WITH THE OCEAN. MINE HAS WORN ME OUT BUT THE THOUGHT THAT IM STILL ALIVE IN HER AFTER ALL THATS BEEN THROWN AT US KEEPS ME ALIVE IN IT AND HER...
