A Place To Get Lost

On an ocean, with nothing around to see; that would be my favorite place to get lost. It is not understandable to everyone as not everyone is a sailor. But when you have seen the vast sea, the endless possibilities in which you can end up, then you understand its value. With the sun shining on your face and the sea murmuring right next to you, you see what beauties the world has. The world does not have eight wonders but seven in my opinion; the seven distinct oceans of the world.
Lying on your sailing boat with nothing to worry about and nothing to think about, you can only think about yourself and your existence. You become one with yourself, you understand who you are. You see the true beauty of nature and compare your existence to it. Only then, lost at sea and alone, can you see that you are able to explore your deepest feelings.

Admitting defeat is difficult for everyone. But when you see nothing in your thousand-kilometer radius, you have to admit that you have lost against nature. So, you learn; you learn about feelings that you never thought humans could feel, you learn about the doubts and regrets you have had up to today.

Then you see perfect unity and harmony of nature. The way winds ripple the tops of waves. The scents that are carried in the breeze reach you and swipe you off your feet. The trees on shore crackle and hum as you look around aimlessly.

You see that you are lost, off the radar. Somewhere no one passes. Somewhere nobody cares to look. Then you think about all the things you had been missing by not being lost long before that day. You are stranded and you cannot even walk away; yet you are glad that you are here, because it feels right. It feels like the place you should be in at that very second. It feels life has played its course and all your deeds, both good and bad, have lead to where you are now.
