I am the First Frog
During my walk today , I saw a tiny frog swimming. There were some tiny fishes swimming with it . And it hit me.
If all my friends are fishes in a pond , I am the first fish that turned into a frog
As my wife was dying. I can sense some changes in me. How I think about life, work , friends and love are changing . Once she is gone , I am a different person
My friends still think I am exactly the same fish. But I have legs now. And I live on land . Widowland . And this is where I live now
I can still go swim with them. If I ask them to come walk with me , the response would be unpredictable . They would be thinking “he is a fish right , why can’t he be more like a fish?just swim around the seaweeds and call it a day”. And I was thinking “we all grew up together right? Why can’t they just be with me? Spend some time around the shore and stare at the low tide”
I did not notice that I now have legs . They still got fins . And I can just breathe air . They have gills. I cannot change back. But eventually , all of them will become frogs
Until then, I will just have to do it solo. And enjoy my own frogging time by myself
