The Sky Cave
10/21/2011
There was a man stranded on an island.  His only tools were time and a shovel.  So he decided to try to make his island bigger.  He dug each day, in knee-deep water, piling more sand onto his little home.  And each day the ocean took back what was rightfully hers. But he kept digging each day. Even in knowing that the ocean would eventually take her land back. He didn’t care. Because all he had was time.  And a shovel.
