I had the fortunate experience to spend time with some
seafaring friends in the last couple of days. I was in awe as I entered the
water among one of our incredibly strong cousins from the sea, humbled by their
sheer presence and energy. It reminds me that we share the Earth with such
wonderful creatures. I was hesitant at first to visit the dolphin sanctuary. I asked
myself, what would their life be like, if they were swimming in the wild. Do they
feel caged? I know that for myself when I am feeling caged or trapped I want to
break free. It was a quandary and I wanted to experience the energies of these
amazing creatures for myself and silently ask them how they felt.
I was happy to report that the energy of my little 7 year
old playmate who was born in captivity was good. I found out that he and his
friends are treated well by the staff and live almost double the years of dolphins
who are in the wild as he lapped up all the attention, rubs, hugs and small
fish from me and my fellow swimmers.
I was still left with the deeper question: Since my little
friend has never experienced swimming in open-ocean, does that make him blindly
submissive to his current environment? Is
it similar to the people who do not venture farther than the two-by-two
illusion that they are brought up in? Having broken out and stepping into the darkness
of the unknown at first can be frightening, but I am a believer of taking that
first step with courage in order to grow.
Blessings and a great day to you..
