You will love the ocean. It makes you feel so... I don't know. Small, but not in a bad way. Small because you realize you're part of something bigger.

Lauren Myracle
About This Quote

A close friend of mine once told me that the ocean makes you feel “small, but not in a bad way.” He felt this way because he had always been an adventurous sort, and was always thrilled by the ocean. A trip to the beach with him was one of my favorite things to do as a child. So I asked him if this was what he meant when he talked about the ocean making you feel small, but not in a bad way.His explanation helped me understand it better. The ocean makes you feel small because you realize you’re part of something bigger than yourself.

You become part of something so massive that it dwarfs your existence. You feel like nothing at all, but you also feel like everything.
