Yes, the ocean is a beautiful and inspiring place. Something about the vastness of the ocean and the sound of the crashing waves also makes me feel small and yet connected to something much larger than myself. I can imagine why you would choose to spend a day at the ocean if you could go anywhere but I won't feel being at home at the ocean like you. I'm too use to the convenience of the city my whole life.
That is so well put! Feeling so small and yet connected. The ocean certainly is a beautiful place but if you're happy in the city then that is also wonderful. We each have our special place where we are home
