Ocean thoughts...

Thoughts come in waves, 

I feel myself closing my eyes,

holding my breath

I let it carry me. 

The smell of the sea,

the salty but sweet taste dance in my mouth 

stimulating all sences. 

The sound of the waves crashing against the shore, 

dragging every last bit of life away with it.

I’ve always loved the ocean. For whatever reason, standing before it has always given me a sense of peace, a place where I am at ease, where I belong. But lately, I’ve been seeing the ocean differently. It’s amazing that, in all honesty, when only know a fraction of the ocean. We’ve only reached parts of it’s depth. We have only experienced some of it’s creatures. There is still so much we don’t know.⠀ ⠀ And isn’t it strange that we find peace in the waves, and yet those waves are controlled by forces so much bigger than us? Those waves we fall asleep to have the power to be high tide, low tide, to billow beneath our bodies and carry us to shore, to pull us under.

The ocean is never serene - beautiful, yes, but never calm. It is forever moving, forever shifting. And I guess, in some ways, I’ve started to see it differently. I will still stand, still sit, still lay, still swim, and still draw inspiration from the ease I feel in being before and in the ocean. ⠀ ⠀ But I will no longer underestimate its grandeur. ⠀ ⠀ And isn’t that a metaphor for life? We can find calm within the chaos. We can find strength within ourselves. We can learn to seek a balance, to come to terms with what is bigger than us, while still acknowledging our own force. ⠀ ⠀ I don’t know, maybe these are just my spilled thoughts, but they felt important, somehow. I think we have so much to learn about what we don’t understand. But even as we see things larger than us, we must accept and understand that despite it all, we are still beautiful creatures finding our place.⠀

So what exactly is it, when you said you missed me? Do you miss having someone gullible enough to believe your lies? Do you miss the fake world you created? I can't get myself to believe you miss me, as a person, when so many things were based on lies. And when your actions now, don't show that you really do miss me. So I think that answers it for me.

Sea of Thoughts ~

The ocean feeds energy into the earth. Every time a wave comes to the shore it pushes new energy into the sand, feeding our earth with endless amounts of new energy every day. This is a never ending cycle of energy- the ocean will forever push forward new positive energy towards its beaches and disappear into the roots of the earth. These are just some thoughts I had last night. The ocean is everything to me. It cures all, and makes us feel alive. I watched “FishPeople” last night, a film created by Patagonia. I really recommend it! Its short, but so good. It covers numerous people who’s lives have been affected in a positive way by the ocean, and what the ocean means to them. It really had me thinking afterwards. I love the ocean, its never ending beauty, its always changing tides, and the fact that it can make us feel smaller then life. The ocean helps us stay mindful, present, and in the moment at all times. It reminds us that there is so much more to life, and its presence helps us to reconnect to our true selves. The ocean is home to me, wherever I may be in the world. Jumping into the ocean and becoming one with it gives me comfort. I hope that wherever you may be in the world that you can find some type of salt water and explore its never-ending energy and beauty.

“for her the ocean was more than a dream, it was a place she needed to visit to find herself. And when she returned to the city, you could see the sun in her eyes, the wind in her hair, and taste the infinite salt on her lips.”

"And it started to rain, but I kept my cool. I feel a fool. She's just hurt and in vain. She's between the two. I put up a fight, it's a light hit. I turn my good side in."🌊🎶 ~ Being ill has taken it's toll on me this week. Even though I was discharged by the hospital, as I wait for antibiotics to take effect I'm still quite sick and weak. But I've had good people checking in on me... It is true that you can really tell who is there for you when you're sick. People's truest colours are visable in the dark. Some are more stirling than others, but my goal is to try not to blame others for their weakness, but to live a strong life by example. Weak people deserve the most compassion and sympathy. The quote below is something that rings true in my life, maybe you'll find it helpful too. ~ "Grief doesn't change you, it reveals you." 💖💔💀@johngreenwritesbooks . . . . . . . #personalblog #personalblogger #bloggersofig #instablogger #grief #griefquote #yyj #dallasroad #pnw #pacificocean #victoria #explorevancouverisland #thejapanesehouse #goodsidein #johngreenquotes #tfios #thefaultinourstars #loss #abuse #weakness #strength #springvibes #empathy #compassion #reflection #oceanthoughts #truecolours #mermaidmusings (at Dallas Road)

Truth is, if I think too much I panic. But the thing is, I can hardly think of anything else.
