The desert and the ocean are realms of desolation on the surface. The desert is a place of bones, where the innards are turned out, to desiccate into dust. The ocean is a place of skin, rich outer membranes hiding thick juicy insides, laden with the soup of being. Inside out and outside in. These are worlds of things that implode or explode, and the only catalyst that determines the direction of eco-movement is the balance of water. Both worlds are deceptive, dangerous. Both, seething with hidden life. The only veil that stands between perception of what is underneath the desolate surface is your courage. Dare to breach the surface and sink. Vera Nazarian
About This Quote

This quote is a depiction of how we have to dare to go into the ocean and reveal ourselves as people. In the ocean, there are many different animals including fishes, dolphins and whales. The ocean is a mysterious place where we can find beauty, but it is also a dangerous place. Many people have been killed in the ocean by sharks or attacked by other animals.

To dive into the ocean and swim around is not easy because we can easily be hurt or killed. When we go into the ocean and swim around we will need courage and determination to be able to survive this dangerous place.
