Droplets of sea water splashed my ash grey fur, making it stand up like the spikes on the back of a vigilant porcupine. Staring around, I lifted my snout up into the rampaging wind to capture the faint smell of salt that lingered in the atmosphere. Within that was also the distinct smell of pollution originating from the vehicle’s exhaust.“Boulder ahead!”. A shout from a distance traveled to me from somewhere above, which was soon after followed by a sharp turn to the right together with another dynamic shower of water. A little annoyed, I shake my drenched coat dry, creating a pattern of streaks and slashes on the dry surface. Throughout my life, I’d been wandering around and stopping by anywhere in which aroused my interest, carefree of tedious days long gone in the past. As a matter of fact, I indeed aspire to conclude my life story alone; as a lone wolf who’d abandoned it’s pack for freedom. …show more content…
I glanced to my left to find a peculiar island, veiled mysteriously in a mist of water vapour, surrounded by the glimmering sapphire blue sea. At once, I was captivated by its mystic looks. Never had I laid eyes on a place so alluring, such that I felt as if I had been called upon. However, whilst I had absentmindedly been drowning myself in my own thoughts, the humans aboard were immersed in their serious discussion; not knowing that a four-legged creature had been freeloading a ride for the means of transportation. “Why have we stopped? Is it an engine failure?” said one.
“I have no idea, but I know for a fact that we’re not in luck. Look around, we’re in the middle of nowhere; just blue, waves and water taking up the whole horizon.” the other responded, sighing in discontent. I was soon to realise that this conversation, I must say, was one which I should not have missed; a blunder which was to become the grievous regret of my
I felt like Barbie, the island princess, bouncing over the gargantuan valleys to the next mound of sand. Before I knew it, Poseidon had his grip on me, I was definitely lost. Even though the towering hotel buildings all seemed the same, I continued my journey down the endless North Myrtle Beach located in South Carolina. After at least an hour of hopping around the mini islands, a middle-aged woman with long, dark hair, like Selena Golmez’s, approached me and asked, “Sweetie, are you lost?”
But I don't see anything wrong." "Wait a moment, you'll see," said his wife. Now the hidden odorophonics were beginning to blow a wind of odor at the two people in the middle of the baked veldtland. The hot straw smell of lion grass, the cool green smell of the hidden water hole, the great rusty smell of animals, the smell of dust like a red paprika in the hot air. And now the sounds: the thump of distant antelope feet on grassy sod, the papery rustling of vultures.
Another demonstration of finding hope is evident within Nevil Shute’s novel, On the Beach, when John Osborne is finally satisfied with his life. He and the others in Australia have to live knowing that they only have a limited time left before the radiation reaches Melbourne. Hoping to find self-satisfaction before dying, he buys a red Ferrari, which is something that he has always wanted but could never afford. Osborne takes advantage of the empty roads, but also habitually drives his car at a private racing circuit. Eventually, John Osborne participates in the Australian Grand Prix after nearly not succeeding in the qualifying round.
In 1940, Steinbeck and Ricketts sailed the Sea of Cortez, Mexico in search for sea creatures along the coast. Spending six weeks studying creatures of the deep blue gave Steinbeck a new train of thought. Along the trip Steinbeck recalled, “Our fingers turned over the stones and we saw life that was like our life” (Levy 9). The main idea of transcendentalism is to understand nature so that one can understand himself. When Steinbeck connected his quality of life with the sea creature’s quality of life, a new perspective was opened to him.
The sounds were amplified, the seals barks echoing through the crisp, morning air and the waves zealously slamming against the rocks. The great magnitude of water sweeping up, and slamming against the algae hooded earth. I felt water droplets
The sun was scorching out heat as it was warming up the city. On the other side the ocean was all admirable dark blue. Waves were shattering surfers. But there was something special in the ocean.
In the NY Times article “Why the Beach Is a Bummer,” Roxane Gay exploits the beach and the ways it never actually lives up to the expectation many have when summer comes around. Gay speaks of her childhood on the beaches of Haiti and how beautiful it was, but how different it is in the United States because there's such a high expectation for the beach since many areas aren’t surrounded by them. “The beach becomes a kind of utopia — the place where all our dreams come true”(Gay), meaning the beach becomes romanticized by so many when in reality there’s just sand in places where it doesn't belong whether in your book or on your body. Gay expresses how soon after arriving at the beach boredom approaches from having nothing to do besides
There are distinctive voyagers, and diverse goals around the globe; some, like the mountains and some of like the oceans. Furthermore, the individuals who like the oceans are dependably vigilant for shorelines that can guarantee the greatest fun - a delightful nightfall, and a perfect situation. Yet, a few needs much more - surroundings that empower them to expose it all and get an all-over tan, where you are permitted to wander around in your common self - bare and without a shred of restraint at the top of the priority list. Bare shorelines, otherwise called dress discretionary, free, or naturist shorelines, are spots where you can peel off your swimsuit and appreciate the sun, sand, and water with the opportunity of an exposed bum. While naked shorelines remain to a great extent unthinkable and are few in numbers that oblige naturists and the individuals who need to feel sun
Furthermore, the aspect of discovery can also be conveyed in a different ways. The fact that sometimes people, like myself, are being forced to find a new place which can result a negative and positive emotional impact, or future possibilities. In ‘The Little Refugee’, Bruce Whatley illustrates a small shabby boat jam-packed with worried people who are desperate to find new life and hope, whereas Hurley’s his discovery was being forced by his inner-life. Dull and grey-black smoky colours symbolize the overwhelming fear as seen through the body language of the people. And the dominance of the stormy clouds adds to the uncertainty, and the salience draws our eyes to the boat, helping us to easily relate to the terrifying encounters.

Submersion A gentle mist of water adheres to my warm face as I overlook the Louis Bridge. I can hear the fierce roar of the current beneath me. My mahogany hair is pushed back by the cool October wind. The torrent of white water splashes against the eroded grey stones that dot the river below me.

It was a Sunday afternoon and New York City was quiet. The city known for its honking yellow cabs and crowded sidewalks was nearly empty. There was a crowd of people in Battery Park, pretending to ignore the oncoming storm. Not because they wanted to, but in honor of a lost parent, sibling, spouse, or friend. They were walkers, raising money for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, and I was one of them.
The ocean… The sound of the waves applauding and hugging the shore. The internal sounds of the body out in the world’s biggest swimming pool. The echo of my sister’s laughter. The salty smell so strong that one can taste it dancing on ones taste buds.
“What a great day for a boat ride,” I thought to myself. It is a cozy warm, shorts and short sleeve shirt day at the time that people are arriving onto the big bulky catamaran. The sky is light blue with some dainty see-through clouds and a slight warm western breeze. I am located on one of the tropical islands of Hawaii, Kauai. The glossy white surface of the boat is blinding because of the reflection from the early evening sun.
