And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock. But then a huge Wave of the Sea came crashing in and destroyed the house, carrying the man out to sea, where he bobbed uncertainly for a while. Until he learned how to swim.

Short Thought on Death and Purpose
In this prison, sad and dark, my only consolation, my only hope, my only purpose are the prisoners sitting next to me. In the event that their light is extinguished before my own, my purpose then becomes seeking others.
Pinpoints of light wink on, wink off, mattering only to those in the radius of their luminescence. If you find this state of affairs depressing, I am sorry; but that is the way things are.
