Soul of a Navigator

Soul of a Navigator

Soul of a Navigator you are...

You are like a boat.

On the water you float.

If you have no engine,

It's like you have no ambition.

You'll go where ever the wind will blow you,

Going into calm waters to and fro,

But when you least expect it,

You'll let whatever dramatic waves crash you.

A storm will come and you will know,

You wished you had an engine.

With an engine you could reach a destination,

A destiny that will pass by beautiful scenes,

Finally arriving to that place of your dreams,

Alas, you will know, the travel was worth it,

The navigation towards your inner goal,

Satisfied with self-actualization and other worldly contributions,

You will know where you started, where you've been, and how far you have came.

You'll be ready and know your journey has been worth it when it's time to go home.
