Some fish set out on a journey to find the sea.
They spent days swimming around in search of the water, anxiously looking for their destination.
They shared their worries and confusion with each other as they swam, then, one day, they ran into a wise fish and asked the question that had preoccupied them for so long.
“Wise one, where is the sea?”
The wise fish answered: if you would stop swimming so busily and struggling so anxiously, you would discover that you are already in the sea. You need to look no further than where you are.
