Three ships sailing on the high sea encountered a massive tsunami.
All three ships, certain that they would be crushed, cranked up their engines and did all they could to escape the big wave.
Still, as hard as they plied their motors and high sea skills, the wave was gaining on them.
At last, tired of running, one of the ships turned and faced the wave.
“So, you think I’m scared,” said the ship.
“Yes I do,” said the wave.
“Well,” said the ship as the other two ships escaped beyond the reach of the wave, “I am not at all scared. In fact, I think you are scared of me.”
“Scared of you?” said the wave caustically. “Why would I be scared of you? You’re just a tiny little ship and I am a great and giant wave.”
“That’s true,” said the ship as he glanced over his shoulder at the massive mountain range looming behind him, “but I have friends.”
