There is a man.

In the very same instant, there is an ocean.

The man lives on the land of his origins.

The ocean has been existing since before the land was first drawn up from it.

The man wades within the ocean's shallows.

The ocean encircles the man with waves that have their origins at the very beginnings of changing tides.

The man and the ocean are at one within the unchanging love that moves the sun and entire rivers of stars.
