Aspiration

Aspiration has several meanings.
Most commonly it’s used to
refer to human desire.
We look at pictures of the things
we want to be, to have and the
places we want to go.
Aspiration can be a beautiful thing.
It makes the world go around.

But, aspiration also means
to inhale water.
Just as easily,
it means,
to drown.
