I am waiting for the sun to rise above the sea. Yet, I cannot find the sun, but I can see the sky gradually glowing from black blue to dark blue, to light blue. As I face the misty, endless sea, I am drawn by it even more, especially the emotions derived from the unattainable space. Just like Sisyphus and dung beetles, we cannot escape from the ever-retreating and yet gravitational nature of the vanishing point at the far end. Some people see it as a sense of doom, an inescapable prison; on the contrary, it makes me feel more connected to something, and relieves my obsession with some other things. I guess this is what I have been searching for.
