When waves peak

Stand on the shore long enough on a windy day and a few things soon become apparent:
  1. Waves spend most of their lives mostly invisibly crossing vast bodies of water.
  2. They reach their most impressive state in the very last seconds of their existence.
  3. Their lives end with a literal bang, crashing out onto land before becoming a mere memory.
I can’t help but think there’s a real-world analogy in this, a broader, higher-order meaning, if you will.

But as I try to commit a few of of these rollers to pixels, I remind myself to stop overthinking everything.

Indeed, sometimes it’s more than enough to just stand in the wind and feel the spray on my face.
