We do not have the capacity to anticipate every single event that will happen in our lives.
It just doesn't work that way.
Because sometimes.. It just does.
And it may even come without a warning, without a sign or without a clue.
It just sticks its head out of the bed and then suddenly it's there.
Suddenly, you don't know why it happened or why it took place in that moment of your life.
Suddenly, it's there and it won't go away.
Suddenly, you're carried away by it's presence.
Suddenly, you're drawn to it.
At first, you wonder why you can't control it.
But.
Maybe.
Just maybe.
Uncertainty can help us learn more about ourselves, our sorroundings, our entirety.
That uncertainty exists not only for the purpose of shocking us but also for the purpose of showing what needs to be shown.
Our life stories overlap a bunch of times with the stories of other people.
And this time,
The life of a struggling photographer overlaps with the life of a swimmer who can only seem to think of the sea.
Who only seems to see the sea.
