LiViNG bY tHe SeA

I succumbed to the call of the sea again. And this time, I ventured out further than I have ever tried before.

In my mind, I was like a dog paddling to the rock ridge out from the beach, so that I can sit on it and ponder the world. I barely made it, panting and all.

Being in the sea does things to you.

Distances become difficult to measure because there’s just this vast expanse of water around you. You feel so alone, it can be scary.

Distances become easy excuses to step away from people for a bit and be by yourself. You feel so alone, it can be comforting.

I think I would like to live by the sea.
