The metaphor of the diver is a powerful one. The diver represents mankind at his most intrepid, exploring the terrifying depths of the earth, risking life and limb in the pursuit of knowledge. He sinks deeper and deeper into the abyss, his only protection from the water’s crushing black death mere centimeters of rubber, metal, and glass. But what is most inspiring about the diver is the attitude with which he embarks on his journey. He goes not with a sense of dread or fear, but with a desire to go forth into the deep, a drive to further the aims of human knowledge. It is this unique sense of earnestness that makes the diver so powerful a metaphor applicable not only to the workplace but also to the realms of life, love, and spiritual growth.
