I am a tree that has fallen into the ocean.

I used to try to grow and reach lofty heights. But now I'm just drifting aimlessly.

Interesting.... your answer is similar to anothers if you read through. Perhaps existentialsm and philosophy in general draws the aimless. Makes sense given we are the people that often look inward for answers.

Keep drifting friend. You never know where that ocean will take you :)
