Verse 26
“You were tossed to the sky and to the ocean depths,
until things looked so bad that you lost your courage.”
The ocean depths, the deeper you sink, the less hope
you have. What causes this
hopelessness?: the thought that you are surrounded by something that end up
taking your life; this thing becomes bigger and bigger. Your doom is so great around you, and it is
slowly becoming great. But it is just
water… could it be that hopelessness comes from the fact that the environment
is incompatible with your organism? What
if it wasn’t? Then this event would not
be daunting anymore, it would just be scenery.
Just like you are now covered and surrounded by air; you are not as
close to death as you think; you would open your eyes and notice the trees
around you, the structures, the light… You notice; there is no pain. There is no violation, as you feel the salt
water fill your lungs, as you feel your body running out of oxygen, as you feel
your mind losing consciousness and function due to lack of oxygen. There is no violation, as you feel yourself
being engulfed by an inability to feel, to think… just enjoy the scenery, enjoy
the ride.
