The Sea

"The sea is everything...Its breath is pure and healthy...It is an immense desert, where man is never lonely, for he feels life stirring on all sides...It is nothing but love and emotion; it is the 'Living Infinite'...In it is supreme tranquillity...The sea does not belong to despots. Upon its surface men can still exercise unjust laws, fight, tear one another to pieces, and be carried away with terrestrial horrors. But at thirty feet below its level, their reign ceases, their influence is quenched, and their power disappears...There only is independence! There I recognise no masters! There I am free!"

~ Jules Verne (Twenty thousand leagues under the sea)

If I could go back in time 32 years, for another shot at life, I would like to be better prepared. Nothing profound, just the knowledge that I will, one day, cherish every moment I have lived, and the people I have lived with.
