Message
When we enter the ocean, we realize the connection between nature and humans along with the natural rhythm of the universe. The ocean is not only beautiful and fun, but also frightening and terrifying. I would like to share my love of the ocean with as many people as possible as I continue my own exploration of living in harmony with nature and accepting change.
