The first notes of “Life is Like a Boat” drifted into the room, and it was as if the tide of memory itself had returned. Years ago, the song had been a quiet companion—its gentle melody a balm for questions that had no answers. Back then, its words felt abstract, a poetic musing about journeys and loneliness. But now, after the storms of time had weathered the heart and reshaped the mind, the lyrics struck with a new weight. “Nobody knows who I really am,” sang the voice, and suddenly it was no longer just a song, but a reflection. The boat was life itself, tossed by the waves of trials overcome and losses endured, the horizon forever just out of reach. Listening again, there was comfort in its honesty—a reminder that the sea may be vast, but the resolve to sail through it grows stronger with each passing wave.
