Mother of the Tides

They say I am insane for repeating the same motions - So why is not the moon; who always pulls the tides of oceans? The seasons fall in pattern, for every year the bring the same - So why condone their cycles... Sun, the Fall Leaves, Snow & Rain? Some cycles are required for certain things to thrive - Consistency? No, insanity, is what keeps some things alive. But I am not the Moon and so, Alas, can't pull the waves - So, sadly, my insanity shan't lead to better days. I fail to know what separates the strong willed from deranged - Perhaps, of course, just that alone is why I am insane.
