THE SEA


A little beach inspiration for your Wednesday...

"I really don't know why it is that all of us are so committed to the sea,
except I think it's because in addition to the fact that the sea changes,
and the light changes, and ships change, it's because we all came from the sea.
 And it is an interesting biological fact that all of us have in our veins
the exact same percentage of salt in our blood that exists in the ocean,
and, therefore, we have salt in our blood,
our sweat, and in our tears.
 We are tied to the ocean. And when we go back to the sea,
whether it is to sail or to watch it, we are going back
from whence we came."

 John F. Kennedy at the Australian Ambassador's Dinner
for the America's Cup Crews, September 14, 1962,
Newport, R.I.

  4. My favorite place in the world is being near the ocean, any ocean. I feel sheer happiness with my feet in the sand and the sea breeze through my hair. Love all of these images.
