Death on seashore

forest fire
I am on a seashore. A forest near to the sea is burning wildly. On the other side is the deep and unknown ocean. The fire is devouring everything. I see a lot of animals being killed by the fire. I want to save them and yet I cannot. They are dying before my eyes. What should I do? Should I try to put out the fire? There is lot of water near me. Should I simply jump into the water and swim away? But will I reach a shore. Or will I drown in mid-sea. If I stay won’t I be killed by the fire? But sometimes the fire may die out. I alone might survive amid all destruction. But I may perish fighting the fire. Shouldn’t I rescue the other animals, my fellow creatures or should I forget everything and swim away to a new world. Should I go and meet and fight the fire. Or can I sit down and watch the fire and the sea. How can I believe which is good.What should I do? How can I be sure I will die?
