I hate the ocean.
However, August loves it. He loves the way the salt sticks to him until he washes it all off in the shower. He loves the aqua color of the Caribbean, and how he can see the cream colored fish swim in between his open legs. He loves the burn in his eyes when he accidentally opens them too early in the water. He loves how the waves lap at his ankles like a dog lapping up water after a long walk in the summer. He loves the ocean.
