Today I was walking along the bay near the shipyard when I spotted a large Jellyfish being pushed against the rocky shore by the tide.
I went down to the water and gently pushed the Jellyfish into open water with a stick, but the tide once again pushed the Jellyfish back to the shore. I suppose when the tide goes out it will take the Jellyfish with it. The Jellyfish has almost no control over its destiny.
Humans like to think that we have some control over our destiny. It is true that we can move ourselves from place to place, but we really have no control over where the Earth goes. The Earth is constantly traveling through space and we have no choice but to go along. So maybe there is not as much difference between ourselves and the Jellyfish as we would like to believe.
