Have you ever felt like your life was heading in the wrong direction and suddenly given circumstances or on your own, you changed course? The path you were following was taking you, where you didn't want to be.
Reflections of your life(or someone else's), passed through your mind. The ending wasn't what you ultimately wanted it to become. You could suddenly see the bigger picture.
How about finding yourself in a life-changing situation, maybe even life/death? The difference between being whole, and losing part of you (physically or mentally) that being an accident, injury. Sickness or divorce. (I have) Look around you in the world (you know) today.
Tell me; why do some suffer so much? and yet, some seem to have a flawless life?

Why do some hunger more than others; while some have more than enough?
Not every question seems to have a clear answer. Not every problem, can a solution be found. If there is no solution; well there simply is no problem.
How does an individual begin with nothing in life. Living once in the gutters of a place they called home/survival; or in some area in between. They rise up from that poverty and struggle, and live like a king(queen)? How is that even possible, for any one individual, to achieve or gain so much in life? Or remain an unknown, like the stars in the sky.
They are driven! Those individuals had nothing else to lose and as long as they had a breathe in them; they fought on in their pursuit!
With the technology of today, you can learn of several, that had the toughest of beginnings; later to flourish in life. (current UVU president Astrid S. Tuminez) is one example. Many came from the unknown, to center stage in life.

Is it all based on chance? A roll of the dice?
Tell me, who is really in control? Who's guiding your life? Are you a leaf on a pond, or as a ship on the ocean? Can you change the direction of your life?
You're not the only one that has struggled, stumbled or suffered and fell. You may be one that just gave up, too soon. Expected to much from something, you were never entitled to from the beginning.

So what is the difference between then and now? That's for YOU to decide.
Let me ask you; you're still breathing and very much alive? Then what other excuses have you, if you haven't changed your life? Is it by chance that you've survived or do you think; is it just not your time? Look at the "in between" empty what is full and fill that which is empty!
The song says it all; more specific being the title. Re-evaluate life and ask yourself(am)or was I the leaf or the Ship?
