As we stepped into the water, it felt like we were entering a new world – a whole of mystery and wonder. The deep silence of the water was more potent than any sound we had ever heard. It was a place of whispers, where every bubble rising to the surface seemed to hold secrets from the past.

Standing in the water, we felt part of something alive. The water moved with us, wrapping around our bodies with every step we took. We were mesmerised as it flowed away from us, slipping through our toes and swirling around our feet. It was like watching time slip away through an hourglass, and we couldn’t take our eyes off of it.

Going underwater is more than just diving into the sea. It’s an adventure that exposes you to a new world where the human ego doesn’t matter. When the water drains away, it reveals a breathtaking world of coral and rocks, showcasing the beauty of the underwater life. It’s incredible to see how life thrives in this silent and serene environment.

As we stood in the water, we could feel it moving around us, telling stories of sunken ships, forgotten civilisations, and great loves that spanned the vastness of the sea. The coolness of the water against our feet felt like a dream that would never end. Each sensation was like an echo deep within us, connecting us to the rhythm of life, time, and the bond between all living things.

As we entered the water, we felt like we were not just sinking but becoming one with the vast and beautiful ocean around us. It was like we were living sculptures, shaped by the natural world around us, baptised in the deep and mysterious embrace of the sea.

Amidst the gentle motion of the sea, we realised something profound: when we let go of everything and surrender ourselves to the water’s embrace, we’re not losing ourselves. Instead, we’re finding a new sense of purpose and meaning.

In the silent voices of my heart, I walk alone, where shadows weep and dreams lay shattered, like remnants of a storm long past.
