Ship yourself with yourself - Or things to remember in maritime metaphors

No comments

You are the captain of your life,
not your boss, or your father, your husband or your girlfriend, not your therapist.
You make the decisions, and you’ll make great ones.

You are the compass,
you know what’s right for you, you’ll find out what you want
and discover your own way eventually.

You are your own anchor.

You are the only one who can bring you down. 
You can control whether you let life weight you down or make you float.
You decide whether you move on or stay.
You have the choice where you settle down and for how long.

You can leave and move on. 

You hold the peace you crave and the happiness you deserve within.

You are able to calm yourself down and snap out of your nightmare,

come back to reality or stay in your happy place.


You are your lifesaver.
You are the person who’ll fight for you and save you each time again.
You will spend the rest of your life taking care of yourself.
You’ll be okay.


And you know what, you might not be the sea,
but you actually have an influence on the world around you,
you are not a victim of destiny.
You can change your circumstances
as well as you can change your attitude towards them.

No matter what, you’ll be part of the sea,
calm or angry,
deep blue, deep thoughts,
light green, light heart.

You are allowed to be different every day,
to be unpredictable,
you have the right to change.
You are independent and you don't owe anybody shit.


You are powerful, 
you have the abilty to make other ships sink, 
you can even drown yourself, 
but every day you chose to let them swim
and bring them to save haven.
Keep swimming.
