Some time ago I was traveling aboard a ship at sea. And I fell overboard. I had gone out on deck to get some fresh air and stumbled over the anchor chain, that was coiled there on the fore deck. I doubt if they ever missed me! The ship was named “The Forget-me Not”! After floating around for several days, I met Mr. & Mrs. Fish. They were an older retired couple of sea merchants and had nothing more they wanted to do. They had planed to just swim around the sea and take things easy. They took me under their fins, so to speak, and guided me through the next few months.
What they found for me to eat, wasn’t the best, but it kept me going. They protected me from danger by showing me where to hide and I didn’t have to worry about having enough oxygen. For some reason, I could breath easily while being with them.
There are so many different sounds that you hear under the surface and have no idea what they are. Several ships passing over above, scared the crap out of me. and the Fish family showed little fear of them. Then there were sounds that I didn’t hear that caused them to take me to the bottom of the ocean, where we would hide. I never did see what these fearful things were.
Mr. and Mrs. Fish were larger than I was, maybe six or seven feet and they appeared to be well educated. While spending those months at sea, they showed me many wonders that were only found in the oceans and they introduced me to many creatures that were friendly to my kind. I also saw a large number of very frightening creatures.
There were thousands of places where un-told treasures could be found, but they were all left where they were, as no one in the oceans had a use for them. There were thousands of sunken ships to be seen. And you wouldn’t believe the number of war ships I saw. And the things that surface people dumped at sea was more than I could believe.
Mr. Fish told me about all the meetings that the ocean creatures had about all this junk in their ocean and they were almost ready to declare war on the people that lived on the land. But they ( the land people) had made a new bomb and if they were to drop that, it would kill more than half the fish in the oceans. They, ‘The fish”, were very lucky that most of all fish, had brains enough to see into the future and know it was best to remain calm.
There were communities of fish living every where, and certain kinds of fish remained in these communities for life. I asked Mr. fish, how long did a fish live. He told me the life of a fish is not measured with time, as a human life is. Fish do not need to do the things that people do. All fish seem to know what is right or wrong and they is no crime Committed in the oceans, Fish are born to eat or be eaten, This is how the number of fish and other creatures are controlled. The fish at the deeper parts of an ocean live to be much older that the fish in shallow waters. You always hear of schools of fish, but that doesn’t mean they are being educated, only that there is a large number of them.
The are some really small fish that eat the larger fish and there are some of the largest fish that eat the smallest things in the ocean. People really don’t know anything about fish, so they make up stories to tell one and other. If they do say something, that is true, they are not aware of it. Fish are all born knowing everything they need to know.
I am sure you have heard that one about eating fish for brain food, it’s not true. If you could get smart by eating sea food, for your brain, most of the people would be come very large. They would not fit into a car or beds or able to set on a chair.
Everything in the world would be different. No man could get close to a woman and the population would shrink to nothing. Man would be-come extinct. Now if you are one who is over weight, think about this! Where did that skinny guy go? Fat guys never get close enough to have half the fun, but the skinny get it all! Hey, if you are among the older people, forget about it. You are destined to be what you are.
A fish doesn’t have to go shopping, or pay a bill, vote in an election or pay any taxes, They never get thirsty and don’t have to worry about too much sun or get a sunburn,
No hair appointments or hair cuts, they never need any money for anything. The don’t have to name the kids or take them to see a doctor, There are no dental bills to pay, Every day is a Holiday, There are no heat bills or light bills. New appliances to buy, No drivers test or license, All you have to do is be faster than the other fish. When a fish dies, he goes belly up and along come a fish that will eat him or her. No funeral expense or services and no estate to settle. Now wouldn’t you say the life in an ocean is better than a life on land? Simplicity is the way to go, let’s all go swimming, you won’t need a swim suit or a towels.
Will I ever live on land again, who cares, not me!
Did you see that? I wonder where that yellow submarine was going so fast? He went by us like he never even seen us, strange fish, wouldn’t you say?
