The sound of the ocean is like a bottle of valium to me. The gentle regularity of the in and out is calming and soothing and makes me feel I’m right where I should be. Maybe I was a mermaid in a past life? Somehow I’ve always felt a deep connection and longing to be near the sea. It’s where my bones settle in, and my mind feels peaceful and the corners of my mouth turn upward unconsciously. Today it sounds gorgeous. With summer breeze accompaniment, it’s a perfect day. A totally perfect day.
