Splitting of the Tide

There is a point at which vast blueness, churning and spewing salt, collides with ground and makes it shudder from its blow. Ground recoils only for the next lash of azure, only for separation to occur once again. It is easy to guess that this perpetual cycle of fellowship and separation between ocean and land has been occurring for centuries and probably will be occurring for centuries more. It is also easy to observe how these simple actions of nature are related to people. Though as a society we are all seemingly united, we actually stand alone. Stereotypes, beauty, racism, wealth, personality, greed: these and more are all the commonplace things that keep ourselves apart from one another. The typical saying "every man for himself" is undoubtedly applied in our society and sometimes even inside our homes. It is never a simple task nowadays to exchange words with someone without being judged or criticized, or to perhaps create new relationships or for once exercise trust with another. Trust doesn't even exist between strangers because strangers have taken it upon themselves to ruin this lost characteristic. We are all at fault because we are all strangers alike. And if the common idea is to be judgmental upon meeting anyone, that's all we'll ever be is strangers.
