Imagine diving into the cold depths of the Cape of Storms, venturing into the dark yet surreal kelp forest along the South African coast. That’s where Craig Foster’s story begins.
Feeling discontented and in need of inspiration, he sought solace in the small pleasures of his youth. At first, getting into the ocean was challenging, even scary, but it became his daily quest—a sanctuary that rejuvenated him and reshaped his life.
The movie ‘The Octopus Teacher’ tells this story. The filmmaker faced something intimidating and unwelcoming, slowly immersing himself in it every day. Gradually, it transformed into his source of renewal.
Inspiration can come from unexpected places. What initially appears scary might hold the key to what’s truly necessary and compelling in your life. So, what scares you today could be your path to inspiration tomorrow.
