“When I stand at the edge of the ocean my eyes scan the horizon and see nothing, but an endless expanse of blue. My mind struggles to wrap itself around the body of water at my feet. I cannot help but contemplate its vastness and its depths, an immensity that seems unfathomable to me. The very thought of the ocean’s magnitude fills me with awe and fear. It makes me feel small and alone even on a crowded beach. Yet it is also a source of refuge, synonymous with serenity. It is here that we feel the sun warm our skin and the sand beneath our feet. It recharges our soul. There is comfort in the powerlessness felt in the face of an amazing force of nature. As small as I feel before it, my troubles feel smaller.” – Linda Mehnert
