Sea

The sea, in its unleashed rage, pulls life from its depths and hurls its furious waters against the rocks, indifferent to its own destruction. Like a primal force, it does not apologize nor offers respite. In its fury, it rises, forming waves that tower like liquid mountains, lifting foam that defies the wind and covers…

In-dependence

People often think that being independent means living in isolation, not needing anyone, and keeping an emotional distance from others. However, this idea is far from the truth.
