Moby-Dick
What is the 'white whale' in your life that you are chasing to the point of being consumed by it?
📝ONGO's Reflection
"Call me Ishmael." Drawn aboard by that powerful first line, we are soon swept into Captain Ahab's mad pursuit. The great white whale, Moby Dick, is no mere beast. It is the overwhelming force of nature, the fate that humankind can never conquer, or perhaps the blind obsession within ourselves. Reading this rough sea tale, I am made to ask whether I, blinded by my own purpose, am destroying myself and all around me. What is that phantom in your life that you can never relinquish, the one you keep your harpoon forever aimed upon?
