Video narration
If you use your phone without charging it, when does its battery run out? And if survival means doing what you hate, must you keep going? In this fable, a young shark learns he must swim and hunt to live. He sees his parents kill small fish, then learns to hunt, though he doesn't want to. As he grows, he asks why they swim. His mother and friend give no answer beyond: that's what sharks do. Keep moving. Keep hunting. Afraid of all the days ahead, he begins swimming faster than ever. Then comes the turn: the faster he swims to survive, the faster his strength and joy wear away. His body weakens; even fish he once noticed bring no smile. He stops, sinks, and dies. The story calls this meaningful. But no: survival isn't endless self-exhaustion. His stopping is tragedy, not an answer.
