Will I regret it all again? Fall back into the cycle of chasing, then collapsing?

Deep inside, I know I want to wander.

To play guitar and flute in response to the call of the ocean.

To sleep under the stars, in absolute peace. To withdraw from the noise completely.

Life is within.

It is immanent.

The world outside is a projection of the mind.

Death doesn’t exist.

We are older than the sky—older than everything we think is real.

I have a dream:

To transcend this life into eternity—in the deep blue of the ocean.
