Imagine an ox, endlessly pulling a yoke. The farmer who placed the yoke on that ox's shoulders disappeared a long time ago, but the ox keeps tilling just in case they come back

At this exact moment, the calm seas now that the storm has passed. I’ll see if it holds.

That's a nice one. Always good to have the wind back in your sails

Imagine someone unsure of and disjointed from his selfworth, his feelings, his personality. Imagine a diamond-cut gem, but very crudely made, with light splitting through it in angles all wrong.

People find beauty in it anyways. The defective gem does not.

Just trying to stick to the eye of an ever more intense storm, and occasionally being buffeted by the winds when it does something unexpected.

In the middle of a vast ocean there floats a raft. The raft looks fragile, like it could tip at any moment. There has been a storm roaring on the ocean for some time, relentlessly buffeting the raft with wind and wave.

And yet, the raft continues to stay upright. Perhaps it will stay this way until the storm clears?

All the captain can do is hope the storm is brief, and that the sun at the other side is not more dangerous than the storm.

Laboriously wandering toward the sun on the dark side of a planet twice the size. Hoping that tomorrow will bring a glimpse of light through passing clouds of rain.

Keeping with the nautical metaphors...

In some ways I feel like this sailing boat that's been finally repaired after being nearly sunk while at sea. the pilot has a defter hand with more experience, but there are choppy waters all around. The astrolabe gives guidance true, but the pilot only has the vaguest clue about where the destination is even supposed to be.

It just remains to be seen if I've got the skill to keep the boat in shape and find the dry land that I need without wrecking in treacherous waters.

Imagine a horse, shiny, like a Akhal-Teke. It is feral, untamed, wild. Everyone who tries to mount him is thrown away or severely shaken. But it awaits, and longs to be tamed. People who will mount it will go fast, and go far.
