I like walking on the beach. It is good for the body, mind, and soul – and refreshing on my feet.
As I walk, a vast mass of water is 180 degrees to my side – a mass of water with its currents moving it ashore and beyond. The moving water that splashes and refreshes me.
I look out across the seemingly endless surface of water with no land in sight, other than the sand in the visual periphery where I stand. No wonder the ancient people thought edges were at the end. Edges that sunrises and sunsets reinforce.
To think that this gulf is small compared to the seas – and the oh my of the seas being specks compared to the oceans. The amount of water on our planet is unimaginable. Besides, most people don’t realize the bigness of one million – let alone millions, billions, trillions, and beyond.
All that seawater, plus the water of rivers, streams, lakes, ponds, puddles, pools, glaciers, ice, and even underground – let alone in the clouds collecting as sponges before releasing the water as rain, snow, sleet, or hail.
All that seawater whose salt represents the salt of tears releasing from our eyes as an emotional response.
All that water in the sea that can be soothing, maddening, heartbreaking, nurturing, and motivational.
Even when the sea is calm, it is not still. Waves and currents are constant. Tides moving to their pattern. It is water’s movement delivering the awe of waterfalls and a sense of serenity from the water of a babbling stream moving over the rocks – or while looking across a seemingly still lake to the other side.
I think of water moving in its cycle. Where has that drop on my knee been? Who has it touched? Did it touch a television or movie star? A world leader? A historic figure? Perhaps da Vinci, Aristotle, Alexander the Great, or Confucius? A farmer, carpenter, librarian, artist, fisherman, musician, or business leader? Or even Lucy the early hominid, Lucille Ball, or Kenny Rogers.
I wonder if the water that soothes my feet ever freely flowed in the smooth stream near my Ohio home. Maybe I’ve seen it before as rain on me.
I think of ancient people during ancient times who were unaware of water’s cyclic ways. Water from the sea is received by the clouds. No wonder they saw the sky as a solid dome separating the waters from above and below. No wonder they saw rain as something that came down from their god above.
Fossils show that long before the existence of ancient people, the sea covered the land – including lands that are currently far from the sea.
Water – so much of it – so many uses – so vital for life – no wonder it is a powerful metaphor. There is much to wonder about water, but now I will settle on allowing my mind to wander as water refreshes my feet.
Water is ungovernable, yet we try our best to manage it. Water seems irrational as it works around our governing attempt. Water is so active that it seems to be boundless chaos
Think about the legends and tales the sea has given us: the mythological sirens, mermaids, sea monsters, and the cultural gods and goddesses – the sea as home to legends, battles, and sunken treasures.
The role of the sea in culture has been important for centuries. People experiencing the sea in contradictory ways: as powerful, but serene; as beautiful, but dangerous; as calm, but vengeful. Humans respond to the sea through literature, art, poetry, film, theatre, and music.
The sea – home to thoughts of courage, romance, loneliness, discovery, adventure, and fantasy.
Depending on the depth, much of the sea is dark because light can only penetrate the water so far – yet the sea is home to some bioluminescent organisms. The sea is also home for many more oxygen-releasing organisms than are found on land. Yes – the seas as the main source for precious oxygen.
The sea surrounds islands, acts as borders, and touches the coasts of many countries. Cities were founded and thrived on the sea as centers for trade, recreation, travel, and today – research.
The sea – a place abundant in life – a life that I don’t typically see – life that I only see a tiny fraction of when I walk.
All that water that makes our planetary home blue – that refreshing blue from space – that pale blue dot in the greater cosmos that is an oasis in the vast desert of space. Yes, this is our home that I walk – the place where I think. Just another reason why I like walking on the beach, which is also good for the mind, body, and soul – and refreshing on my feet.

Water – the sea – is an enigma when you think about it. As you said, who else has touched the water that you see? Yet there is no way of identifying any amount of water. You can’t tag it, in the way wildlife is tagged to see where creatures travel, and where they turn up next. You always give me plenty to ponder, Frank. 🙂
Thank you, Otto, for sharing your amazing photos with Frank. I suppose with recent restrictions, your travels are currently limited. It look like you have made, and captured on film, several memories to tide you over until we are able to move around the world freely again. 🙂

“Enigma” is a wonderful word to describe the sea. Love your idea that we “can’t tag it” as we do with wildlife. For me, thinking about water’s journey is overwhelming. I know the water cycle and everything, but to water’s journey way back in time is incomprehensible.

I agree – we can begin to comprehend the amount of water. Sure, experts can give us a number of millions of gallons with more zeros, but I’m a believer that most of us can’t comprehend how big the number one million actually is – let alone millions upon millions. To spend one million dollars in a year requires us to spend almost $2740 dollars per day … that’s every day for one year. And that just one million! On the other hand, as one who loves to play with a camera, what did you think of Ott’s photos?

I think not just the ocean but the entire world is of such a scale that we need to concentrate on the smaller parts of it just to comprehend even a bit of it. Even a fantastic mountain range is made of incomprehensible amounts of earth and rock and trees and… We as people often get to think of ourselves as pretty big and important. Take a look around, really look, and you might understand your place in the world.
For a wonderful book about water starting at a tiny source and ending in the ocean, as well as being a great adventure book for children and adults alike and a great way to teach/learn a bit of geography, read “Paddle to the Sea”, written and illustrated by American author/artist Holling C. Holling. It’s marvelous!

A lovely reflection, Frank, that reminded me of the staggering need to preserve and sustain our water supplies. When I look out at the immensity of the Pacific ocean (I live in Vancouver Canada) I realize that I must be be part of the solution. And that there is hope for renewal. “Statistics on global water challenges are daunting: 3 billion people don’t have basic handwashing facilities. A quarter of the world’s population live in countries facing extremely high water stress. There are more than 500 dead zones — areas of the ocean without enough oxygen for most marine life to survive — from untreated wastewater. The solutions to the world’s water crises, though, cost far less than you might think. New WRI research found that securing water for our societies by 2030 could cost just over 1% of global GDP — about 29 cents per person, per day from 2015-2030.” https://www.wri.org/blog/2020/01/cost-to-solve-global-water-crisis
