pause to ponder;

Something to think about: Haven't you ever wondered at the beauty of the ocean's persistence to kiss the shore, no matter how many times it gets sucked away? This is how we should be with others, when they don't know what they say. 

Haven't you ever wondered that the ocean's kiss can also be its strike? 
The shore may absorb its waters, but it can also penetrate stone with might.

Haven't you ever wondered that by denying others and using their ignorance as a mitigation, may strike us hard on the day when we will have no protection?
