John eerily stepped up to the shoreline, looking out towards the vast sea. His toes were slowly caressed by the cold waves that tickled the pebbles underneath them. This vast unknown looming in front of him made his heart skip a beat. What secrets lurked in the deep blue? What messages were waiting to be discovered? He was going to find out.
John crouched down, picking up a few of the bottles scattered around. He held them up to the fading sunlight as he inspected them carefully. They each had a unique and creative label, like little gifts from another world. He squinted at the old writing until he made out stories of love and loss, of new beginnings and discoveries, of brave adventures ahead. He ran his fingers over the messages, feeling like he had a connection to the creators he would never know.
John wrapped his fingers around a bottle and lifted it up, amazed by it’s weightlessness. It had a black label with emerald green font; a sea of small stars danced around the words ‘Tales From Afar’. He felt a wistful sensation as he read the label – places he had never been, people he had never met. His imagination ran wild with stories from far away lands. It felt like a treasure, ready to be unlocked.
John crushed the bottle close to his chest and smiled. No matter what the future would bring, this moment of discovery and exploration stayed rooted in his heart. He walked along the shoreline, admiring what the messages in the bottles had to offer.
The second bottle he picked up was eye-catching: A silver label with navy blue letters. ‘The Bridges We Build’ it read. He thought of how other people are like bridges, between us and the unknown. He thought of the dangers the unknown could bring and then how the right person can bridge that divide and make it all easier to cross. He wondered who was the recipient of this particular message.
The third bottle was a light pink labe with gold font. ‘Sensation of a New World’ it read. John felt that tingle of excitement, of a whole unknown to explore. He imagined the sense of freedom and joy that comes with that. The feeling that anything can happen and be possible.
John looked up from the bottle, curiosity taking over. He found his gaze drawn to the fourth bottle, a bright green label with bold blue font. It said ‘Life Never Lost’. He touched the label gently, the emotion of it almost palpable. He thought of all the lost souls swimming in the sea and the courage it takes to keep going despite the odds.
Finally, he released his gaze to the fifth bottle. It was a deep purple label with yellow font, with the words ‘The Ones That Dream’ on it. He thought of all the dreams that had been cast away, of dreams that still hadn’t been realized. He knew that hope and determination can be enough.
John padded back along the shoreline to where he stood before. He looked along the bottles, another wave of stories to be discovered. He felt the courage and wonder the creators had and it was enough to keep him searching. He let out a breath, taking all the stories with him as he made his way home.
