My favorite app aside from Robinhood (stocks only go up) is this shark tracker that tracks sharks, dolphins, sea turtles, gators and even seals. One of my favorite things to do is look at track history for certain sharks. It’s fun to think about why these sharks do the things they do or go the places they go.
I like to think that people much smarter than myself are able to use this data and figure it out. Scientifically, there’s probably a really good answer. But I don’t really care about that.
Here’s Alara. She’s never been able to make up her mind. Life seems to have been a series of random decisions. But there might be something more to her. “There’s no place like home” is the old adage she subscribes to. She loves her stomping grounds just northeast of Australia. For her, there are plenty of fish in the sea here. There’s no reason to leave.
On the other hand we’ve got my dude Cabot. This guy is a swashbuckler, straight up. Hell, he even swam through Florida, twice. How many people can say that? But this is kinda what I’d do if I were a shark. I’d see as much of the ocean as possible. As far as I know, sharks don’t have jobs or other obligations of the sort. All you’ve got is time, and a whole world to explore.
Maybe we should strive to be more like sharks. I have no idea how, but Cabot seems to have read up on his stoicism. He is living his life to the fullest, in tune with himself and the world around him. He’s an explorer and a philosopher. Every day presents a new opportunity for him. There are things to see, fish to eat. His habitat is the world, and he wants to see it and experience it. I envy Cabot sometimes. But why envy him when we could learn from him? Why not strive to be more like him?
Life is too short to not be more like Cabot. We should take chances, experience as much as this world has to offer us. For, we should not fear death. We should fear never beginning to live.
Also, you should really download this app it’s awesome and I’m now an expert on sharks.
