To be
“Adrift”
can have both literal and figurative meanings:
Literal Meaning: In a literal sense, to be adrift means to be floating without being anchored or moored. This is often used in the context of boats or ships that are not tied to anything and are drifting with the current or wind.
Figurative Meaning: Figuratively, to be adrift means to be without direction, purpose, or stability. It can refer to someone who feels lost or uncertain in life, lacking clear goals or a sense of belonging.
Possible third meaning: Very much unmoored and detached, yet not lacking direction…
