like I've already enthused.. the sea has a very special place in my heart-mind combination
worthy of many heart-icons... and definitely an ode.
the pictures have been captured off of google... no claims of "mine".. but don't they make you feel so light inside?
as though the potential of the Universe is spread in front of you... and you are just a grain of sand on the beach... nearly invisible, yet part of this vastness
how important we think we are.. our thoughts, emotions, decisions, love life even... our lives.
yet we will one day be just a memory in the minds of a few... till they too are a memory...
and then our mind carries on in another form to learn new lessons, holding on to the old hopefully...
this human form that we value so much.. our aspiration and dreams... are but shifting sand... melting out of time's hands... yet to open our eyes to the infinite width of the Divine's creations... the expansion beyond the potential of the physical eyes... the compassion to soak in all our emotions... absorb and transmute... cleanse us of our heaviness so we experience our lightness in its healing embrace... we love you sea, my heart declares... my heart, my mind and me...
i remember one experience of clearly realising the love experienced... thailand with family, but a trip with new friends actually.. after jet skiing off the waves, falling from the banana boat.. a pair of inappropriately torn shorts later (can they ever be appropriately torn?)... i sat in the sea holding on to their bobbing rope on the side... declaring to us, seaward-bound, till what point it was safe to paddle in.. i chose to hold on and as the sea pulled me in i remember telling myself 'don't forget this moment'... there are a few moments in life that you have to tell yourself.. don't forget this.. remember how you are feeling in this exact moment.. this moment will slip away but let this memory remain... and source from this the strength to face all the other moments that may not be as heavenly...
kisses to the sea from too-far-away... i wish we were as close in body as we are in mind ..
