'And a drop of sunlight'


                                                                    a snap from my last visit to the nearby beach

" The sea's only gifts are harsh blows, and occasionally the chance to feel strong. Now I don't know much about the sea, but I do know that that's the way it is here..
And I also know how important it is in life not necessarily to be strong but to feel strong. To measure yourself at least once. To find yourself at least once in the most ancient of human conditions. Facing the blind death stone alone, with nothing to help you but your hands and your own head . ."

- quote,from the movie, 'Into the wild'

  1. The sea, lets you to deep dive into you and explore within you. I always like to sit and watch the horizons beyond and its an unexplainable calmness that I experience

    Glad you too have that chance having a sea nearby. My city is not by the sea shore :-(
