It was a strange kind of stillness. The ocean wrapping its waters around my body like a garment of liquid silk. Bobbing around in the gray-green infinite, the horizon scarcely discernable. Hardly a wave breaking on the ever rippling surface. Toes gently springing upwards from the sandy bottom, hanging suspended in the nothingness of the water.
  The quiet is peaceful, not brooding and it seems strange that the most powerful force on earth can be at rest. Even if only for a moment.
