Being on a boat that's moving through the water, it's so clear. Everything falls into place in terms of what's important and what's not.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I'm scared of the water, and I hate the sea. I'd be all right if it was clear and I could see what was underneath. But it's the not knowing what's there that freaks me out.
I think the concept of the sea is very important.
I love boating - not flash, 'noisy go fast' nonsense, but the general relaxation of it. My wife and I love to get in our little Wellcraft and go as far out to sea as we can, hopefully beyond land. That is the best thing you can ever do. It clears your psyche.
As soon as I get on my boat, something inside me changes. Then I really feel what living is.
As a surfer, I think of places like a wave: you see one thing on the surface. But you always know there's something different going on underneath.
I love the ocean. Boats, not so much.
I keep sailing on in this middle passage. I am sailing into the wind and the dark. But I am doing my best to keep my boat steady and my sails full.
You see through love, and that deludes your sight, As what is straight seems crooked through the water.
My experience of ships is that on them one makes an interesting discovery about the world. One finds one can do without it completely.
There is nothing - absolutely nothing - half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats.
