By the sea

It's amazing how much that I don't know about the sea. It's wonderful and terrifying at the same time. I could listen to it all day and watch it just as long. It will go from a constant roar to moments where everything will suddenly go calm and quiet. Then back again to ground shaking crashes. 

I can totally understand the love of the sea. The one way love - the sea does not know or care about the people that ride or dive below the waves. 

If retired or work at home would I ever choose to live by the sea? Probably not. It would be a good way for the days to stretch into weeks and the weeks into years without noticing the passage of time. You would suddenly find yourself to be an old man, and the sea.
