i have this one album i listen to every single day at least once, sometimes twice.
and for some reason, it makes me think of the beach.
there's no place on earth i love more than the beach. by beach, i don't really mean beach. i mean, any coastal area. the cape, rockport, NJ, DE, any number of places like that.
i think if i were to see martha's vineyard, i would fall in love. but i don't know since i've never been there and it costs money to take the ferry out there. but i just have this feeling in my gut that if i were to see it, i'd just have to live there. at least at some point in my life. or have some shack out there or something. or at least go visit it often.
see, i just have this thing for the water. there's nothing more beautiful to me than coastal new england, or beaches, or ocean, or rocky cliffs by water or the north shore.
being by water is almost a spiritual experience for me. i can't explain it. it's just so soothing and calming to me. there's no other place on earth where i feel more peaceful than by the water.
and within the last week or so i've really felt a longing to see the ocean. i get this from time to time.
and right about now, despite the 20 and 30 degree weather, there's nothing i'd love to do more than walk along the ocean. to rest and renew my spirit. to experience calm, peace, and serenity. to feel at "home."
it's like this aching from within....a longing...
i miss the water.
it's calling me...
