The entire Ocean in a Drop
“You are not a drop in the ocean, you are the entire ocean in a drop.” – Rumi
Light
We often see ourselves as just a single drop in the vast ocean — believing that our voice, our contribution, and our light are too small to matter. Yet, the truth is that the light “ocean” itself lives within us. It illuminates us from within and holds the power to awaken light in others. Everything flows and connects, yet all is fleeting.
Illusion
We often forget our deep belonging — to each other and to nature — and live as though we are separate. This illusion feeds conflict and loss of compassion, both among people and toward the Earth itself.
Shared Essence.
The sea reminds me of our shared essence. It gives and it takes. It offers calm, renewal, and reflection — yet it also carries sorrow, memory, and change. Within its vastness I find both stillness and movement, the rhythm that flows through all life.
The entire ocean (light) is within us all — vast, fluid, and endlessly connected.
