In the ocean
I have been to both the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. But the body of water in front of me now looked like neither. The water was crystal clear, showing off every fish and rock. I saw a beautiful blue rock, but it was a stone fish that jumped went I got too close. I could hear water moving, but I was surrounded by still water. As I walked to one edge, the sound got louder, so a waterfall must be on this side.
I picked up a rock and tossed it over the side, and I was terrified when I heard nothing. Normally, you want to hear the rock hit the ground in a short amount of time. So I decided not to go any closer. I went back to where I started and chose to meditate on life. The water was room temperature, so I wasn’t bothered by it as I sat down. I did my best to clear my mind, but I can feel a sad pain inside.
I tried rubbing a couple of smooth rocks in my hands. I opened my eyes, and I was back in reality. Maybe I will go to see what the rest of the world looks like.
