The River Cannot Go Back

let's get the ocean's take on this :)

The Ocean would be all encompassing , all willing to embrace , all able to take in the river , Curiously the Ocean too understands that it's own existence is probably linked to the flowing of the rivers into it.

The same river, said Heraclitus, is never stepped in twice. The river was never distinct in any meaningful way from the ocean or from the rain that both creates and feeds off the ocean and the river. Our ineluctable tendencies toward our solipsism and the illusion of being separate distort our take on life and consciousness. All is one.

You are that Ocean! How can the water from the Ocean be any different from that of the river. They are the same. They were always the same!
