Your gateway to endless inspiration
Fun fact, i went through a pretty strong cetacean phase as a child. Then, after my frontal lobe fully developed, i realized that I am TERRIFIED of Orcas. I had never been afraid of them before, but now, i get especially on edge at the thought of somehow encountering one in the ocean (which will never happen since deep blue water makes me panic, and i have had to swim through it once and hated every second of it lol. Also, i don't live somewhere that see Orcas, like, ever lmao).
I still think theyre fascinating creatures and extremely beautiful, and i will continue to advocate for them 🙏❤️
"Do you ever dream of land?" The whale asks the tuna.
"No." Says the tuna, "Do you?"
"I have never seen it." Says the whale, "but deep in my body, I remember it."
"Why do you care," says the tuna, "if you will never see it."
"There are bones in my body built to walk through the forests and the mountains." Says the whale.
"They will disappear." Says the tuna, "one day, your body will forget the forests and the mountains."
"Maybe I don't want to forget," Says the whale, "The forests were once my home."
"I have seen the forests." Whispers the salmon, almost to itself.
"Tell me what you have seen," says the whale.
"The forests spawned me." Says the salmon. "They sent me to the ocean to grow. When I am fat with the bounty of the ocean, I will bring it home."
"Why would the forests seek the bounty of the oceans?" Asks the whale. "They have bounty of their own."
"You forget," says the salmon, "That the oceans were once their home."
