I am the Ocean
"All waters flow into me without filling me, all the waters flow from me without draining me" Chuang Tzu. "Whoever crosses the sea with its sharks and demons, its terrifying waves which are so hard to surmount, may be said to have gone to the Ends of the Earth and have departed to the Beyond" Samyutta-Nikaya. The Gift is different for everyone; I just can't see the ocean, and not feel overwhelmed by its presence. Will I ever surmount its waves? Will I ever look at it and feel one with him? Will finally all of those dreams come to an end? The Ocean, the Sea, the Great Waters…Life is believed to have begun in it, is also that the end? Anyway, I AM THE OCEAN.

The quote you open with here is so beautiful, it reminds me of the Eternal Source, or the All.
What dreams are they that you wonder if they will "come to an end"? and why do you wish them to end? Is it fulfillment, relief, release?
The end I think is complex and yet simple, and really quite full of beauty and love.

It's actually relief, for so many years the Ocean have been after me, one stormy night, I stood in front of the Ocean, he came towards me, but I didn't pulled back, I didn't moved untill the storm ceased, that's when I knew I could succeed. Dignity, Courage, Manhood.
