If you imagine standing on the edge of an ocean, consider what you see in front of you. The vast expanse of water in front of you stretches as far as the eye can see; there is the horizon and nothing more beyond... or is there? We know from prior knowledge that there is more, even though it is not visible at that moment - even though we cannot see it, we can imagine it for we know it to be so. Yet how often do we stretch that which we know to be true, to imagine more - to expand on our current knowledge? Perhaps therefore we should take time to explore that horizon - to make moves to discover more of what lies beyond. We know that although the ocean is vast it is not infinite; it is broken by land - by islands, by other parts of the World. What of our own horizons, beyond our own vision? At times we may feel that there is nothing but the ebb and flow of our own tides - our emotions, our experiences and that all we are aware of is all that there is. Yet we know that there is more and we each have our own horizons to explore, to investigate, to bring together all that we believe to be beyond the horizon just out of sight with that which we have never even dreamed of. Thus discoveries are made, knowledge is expanded and we know that we have reached beyond our own limitations as we perceive them, beyond all that we are familiar with - to embrace the unknown and to journey beyond those boundaries.

Within the expanse of the ocean of knowledge that wed can see are hidden depths that create boundaries and new experiences as much as reaching beyond the horizons - for even in what we can see immediately in front of us are other aspects to be explored and the unknown to learn about - to delve into. How far we go towards the horizon - for there is always a horizon ahead - and how deep we go to explore is for us to decide. We are the decision-makers in our own adventures and explorations, and although we may sometimes share that horizon with others, all that is found along the way is ours alone and will be different for everyone. See the ocean ahead of you - for it is the ocean of possibilities.

'Til we meet again...
