The Ocean is a expansive world that contains multiple different dimensions that we have not yet allocated the resources to explore. This wide mass holds mystery, beauty, and overarching powers that defy our slightest comprehension of the Ocean’s potential in the world. As stated the Ocean heavily surpasses our comprehension as we, at first glance, may perceive the ocean as an empty void yet these infinite expanses, contain life beyond human understanding. In humanity’s typical approach to Earth we perceive ourselves as the masters of the world and the rulers of our environment. Although this idea immediately crumbles when humans are confronted with the magnitude of the Ocean and face the struggle of being humbled by our own egos. We are nothing in comparison to the Ocean and its vastness, the depth of society has no comparison to the depth of the Ocean.

While we conquer society on land we have failed to conquer the ocean. In my opinion I don’t think we will ever have the potential to fully dominate the Ocean and unfortunately do not think that society will delegate the resources to do so. I include the image of the mermaid swimming in the Ocean because it barely scrapes the surface on how big the Ocean truly is, in comparison to our own bodies. The world is 70% water, in which we are surrounded and dominated by its power. The image is directly from the video and I think it is an emphasis of our position in the world, even all powerful mermaids do not compare to the size of the Ocean. While our comfort is in the land, we must force ourselves to explore the vastness that proceeds us as it is the bane of our existence. The Ocean serves as a timeless entity that is everything but “empty” as it is filled with every reminder of our creation and adaptations. Rather than view the Ocean as an empty vessel we should view it as a space of infinite potential and opportunity. We must allow ourselves to erase our egos against the Ocean and acknowledge our existence as “less than” in the face of the Ocean, as once we recognize the power the Ocean has, we can learn to join our powers and work in unison.
