The trouble with oceans is they don’t take up enough room in your life to match their majesty. The ocean that bathes the piece of land you’ve settled in is a supporting character at best in the minor play that is your life.

A move changes things, though. The moment you feel uprooted, everything that seemed permanent proves taken for granted.

The Pacific felt permanent to me for over seven years. A silent partner, a silent witness. And only at the very end of that era, did it occur to me to spend a cloudy November afternoon gazing at it.
