Your name may be 'writ in water', but for now, you have the great advantage of being a wave that can think.

About This Quote

A wave is a natural phenomenon, an object that is part of the ocean. A wave’s only purpose is to be a part of the ocean, and to serve as a source of water for other waves. When a person is a wave, they are also a source of water for other people. People can see a person's potential and do what they can to help them reach it.

A person’s name should be written in water. Writing someone’s name in water means that you have picked out what they can accomplish and where they can go in life.
