Drifting at sea

You and I ended up in the same boat. Spending our days drifting at sea, searching for a way to survive. We need so much and the world offers so much, yet we cannot seem to find what we need. Once again the conflicting desires in life are present. Comfort and love are very valuable to our minds, yet our legs are restless for adventure. Sadly, it seems that these feelings cannot be met without guilt and the occasion embarrassment.
So where exactly does this ship take us? I can only speak for myself when I say that my desired destination is a sliver of dry land where I can enjoy the sunshine. How long will it take me to escape the sea? That can't be accuately determined, but I'll know when I see dry land. Until then I'll do my best to satisfy both hungers while keeping my mind, legs, and soul satisfied just enough to fall asleep at night. When you and I both arrive at our destinations we can pick up the phone and find out how we got there, but until we drift.
