The ship according to the gospel of Arsenio

A ship in the harbor is safe
But that is not the reason why ships are built
That is not what ships are

They are made to sail
To go not to stay

They are designed
To float

“Safety, security and survival
Are not the goals of our lives”

“Life is an adventure
Not maintenance”

At its end
The ship is always for
Sinking.
