Lush
Sensuous Ocean
That is Heaven,
I can feel you only
From the ghost inside me that
Knows you exist, somewhere
Obscure and inaccessible.
My imagination
Makes you here
But the longing
Is still too real.
~Celestial K.
If you have been following my blog, you may have gotten an inkling that I feel like I’m too far away from the water. I crave the ocean. My husband and I are planning a trip to visit it.
But seriously, to go to the lake, it’s an hour drive. To go to the beach, it’s 5 hour drive. That’s ridiculous to me.
But visiting the beach, and dreaming of the beach, is starting to not be enough for me. I have an urge to make a drastic change and move there!! I want it.
The problem is, two have to agree to big decisions in a marriage, and my husband is not ready to do that yet. This is one of the first times we don’t really see eye-to-eye. I say, why wait to make our dreams come true?! Because I know he wants to live near the beach, too. He’s said it before that it’s a dream location. But he’s thinking “maybe” in 5-10 years, which seems too long for me.
So I must hang on to prayers and hope that one day soon, he will feel the call of the ocean like I do.
Wish us luck! 😉 Your prayers are welcome, too. I’ll do the same for you, just let me know what to pray for!
Fun, fun, fun!
I saw an ocean for the first time about 5 years ago…I’ve been dying to go back sense then.

Wow, I can’t believe you saw it for the first time only five years ago. See, I guess I grew up living 2.5 hours away from a beach, and lucky enough, we went every summer just about. I’m always drawn to it. 🙂 I can’t imagine growing up not being near a beach!

Aww thank you so much my good friend Celestial! Your birthday wish means so much to me, as not everyone takes the time out to wish someone a happy birthday, or also remind you that you’re a precious creation of God!! So I really appreciate it, and it warms my heart. I’m so glad we’re friends on here, and I’m glad I know there’s someone like you in the world! ❤
