“The storms come and go, the waves crash overhead, the big fish eat the little fish, and I keep on paddling”

Simplified Meaning:

Life can be tough and full of challenges, just like a storm or big waves in the ocean. Sometimes, you might feel overwhelmed by problems or see others face difficulties, much like small fish being eaten by bigger ones. Despite all this, you should keep moving forward and not give up, just like a person paddling a boat continues to row no matter what. For example, imagine working on a difficult project at work. There might be setbacks, disagreements with colleagues, or even people trying to compete against you. Instead of getting discouraged, focus on doing your best and continue with your work. By staying determined and keeping a positive attitude, you can overcome challenges and succeed, much like someone who keeps paddling their way through a stormy sea. The key message is to stay persistent no matter what obstacles come your way.
