I am a sea person, I want to go back to my beach... I miss my beach... This time of year though, it sucks, I want to go back to the ocean all the while the ocean is coming to me, but now, now the ocean is late there is no land ocean for me to play in, no water for me to build with. I want my salt water! I want to go swim in the sea once again. I want to return to my sea! Oh but I know that that wont happen any time soon, and even then what is my beach going to look like, has it gone comercial, polluted or worse all the life gone from her? I want to see her again. I want to swim in her waters with her dolphins and sharks again, I want to play in the fresh water spring that I loved so much. I want to go home! But alas that isnt my home any more, I have no home, I am a nomade and I always will be (thanks so much tramatic childhood!) and it sucks cause I want to go back to my sea my beach my forest my spring I want to go home but I cant... I hate this time of year!

Ah my sea, how beautiful was she... How glorious and gorgeous, she never steered me wrong, she was mother bounty, to me she yielded all that was hers, and I gave what little I had to her... She was my mother, my beautiful mother, life came from her and life returned to her, she was beauty and she morned me when I left (hurricane andrew I think it was, yes the entire world revolves around me), and each year she gives me a gift of the land ocean, this year she is late... I yern to return to her side, to play once more at her feet... I want to go home and yet I know I have none there...

Ah well lets blame it on SAD...

Ah, mato... i understand.... i can see my ocean from my window.. and she is so precious to me. i have lived away from her.. but i am fortunate that i have always been able to come back. This time i hope i never have to leave her again. It's not often that i can swim in her.. for she is so very cold here... but her spray lashes my windows when the wind blows 110 kph from the northeast.. as the wind frequently does.... and i can feel her and smell her and see her every day. i do ritual by her and sing and drum and chant and dream by her.... she sustains me and nurtures me..... you will find you way back.... you will.... meanwhile, learn the hard lessons of exile..... the homecoming will come in good time. bb talamh

i so understand you longing, and lonelyness for the ocean.
about 15 years ago, i was stuck in a tiny former logging town.
of Packwood washington. hours fron the sea.
i was so happy to make my was back to the inside passage of south east alaska. with the fog and misty clouds, and the whales, eagles.
and any spring day you might find , japanise fishing floats, feathers of exotic birds. rarely seen any where else. skulls and bones of bear and other wild things. and where the tide meets the trees. not a lot of beaches, but many fjords.
a beautiful and peaceful place to call home:loveduv:

I don't know if I could stand to live away from the water!

On another note, I've always wanted to visit Alaska. I watch programs on the TV and see photos and read books and know it can't compare to seeing all of it first hand. I'll get there one of these days!

niamh, you should visit alaska, you will love it here.
there are over 33,000 miles of coastline. most of it completely untouched ever.
not to mention the trees, and lakes, and glaciers.:heartthro:

I SOOO understand how you feel, I lived in Maine, right near the ocean, now due to bad events in my life, I live in the desert, how far from the ocean can you get! I miss the sounds, the waves, and the smell. Cold and clean, now I live in polution and smog!

Sometimes when I meditate I think of myself at the ocean the breeze and the smell, and it makes me feel a little better. Maybe you can try that untill you can return to the water and waves!:D

Blessed Be,
Kahlan

OOOH I understand so much

I was so lucky, I just spent about a week-ish ness near the ocean, never more than 5 miles from it :D it was heaven. Today, on the drive home, I saw the ocean, and couldn't help feeling so happy and warm and welcomed. I tried to share it with those friends of mine here that I knew missed it. ( ;) @ MistOfTheSea)

I would die if I had to live inland. I'm ok here, because I'm close enough to spend a nice long day at the beach if I want. It doesn't take more than about 45 min to get to a decent beach. Northern California, the Sonoma County coast. Riptides are a b*tch, but if you're careful it's wonderful. I love it here.

And who says the water's too cold? hah. them's not fish, they're not. :D I'll take numb, salty, sandy toes any day of the year! ^___^

*snaps fingers* I've got it! You two come live with me! ^__^ we'll spend all our vacation time at the beach. mmmmmm

I've lived all up and down the East Coast, and I can honestly say that aside from the Benny's, traffic, and garbage that the Jersey Shore is the best. I currently live about 10 minutes from the beach, and I don't think that I could ever live in land.

MagickHLHgurl~ You live in Bayonne?
