"I have always been and will forever be in love with the ocean. Maybe it&amp;#039;s because I grew up landlocked, but from the first time I smelled salt water and buried my toes in the sand, I knew I was where I belonged. I have no idea if I&amp;#039;ll ever get my dream of retiring by the sea now. It was something Peter was definitely on board with, back when we were together. The two of us, lined and gray, staring at the sun setting on the water. Those were romantic expectations, to be sure. Reality is a bit different now for me. I&amp;#039;m still hopeful. Maybe I&amp;#039;ll have someone in that adirondack chair next to me, and maybe I won&amp;#039;t. Maybe I&amp;#039;ll be on a deck overlooking the beach, or maybe I&amp;#039;ll be in an apartment in a tiny town a short bus ride from the boardwalk. Who knows? I&amp;#039;m going to find a way to be able to walk by the water whenever I want, though. Somehow. All I know is I stand here watching my kids, breathing in the sea air and feeling the sun on my shoulders and I feel renewed. Like I can take on my world and all the chaos that&amp;#039;s in it. I hope it holds till I get home! What about you? What recharges your batteries? "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
