The beauty of a
sunrise on forever is a romantic notion to many people. The sunrise
over planet earth makes for the introduction to such legends as superman
and the anthroplomorphosism of space its self. It serves as a reminder
that we are part of a bigger plan and that everybody takes part in that
plan, no matter how small.
We are the voyagers, traversing personal thought, emotion, scholastic achievement, power, honor, a future and even the extent of our own capabilities. The thing we so soon forget and are reminded of by, when it comes to this imagry, is that we are doing this not alone but as one of an ocean of others trying to do the same thing or at least earn the right to call their life water rather than a single molecule of H2O.
Sitting on our beaches or our starships or even out in the middle of the ocean, we look out on forever and can be humbled that we are one so small in the existence of life on earth. When we come back to reality, however, we stand outside the water; we stand outside of space. As people, we have the ability to percieve these feelings and experience them all in a different way.
That is why we are the ocean. Not a single molecule of H2O or water but that great body made up of many of different parts despite the vast quantity of things that surround it. Pain and death are inevitable but so is forever. Our strength to know that anything that leaves here will indeed make an impact that will never be forgotten; most notably ourselves.
This is the reason why we should not look out onto the dawn or the dusk, but to the achievement of a new day and new structures to observe and feel.
Just like the ocean, the eternity of space, we are explorers and we are given ourselves.
