Excerpt:

For as long as I can remember, I’ve always had an attraction to the ocean. My father told me it started when I fell in love with film The Little Mermaid, but I knew my longing for the sea predated that. The sound of the waves crashing against the shore was my first lullaby, and seeing the sea outside my window was often my first sight upon waking. Whenever I could, I’d play in the sand, building castles that the sea would eventually reclaim.

Ever since I was old enough to stand, I was warned by grown-ups never to actually enter the water itself. It wasn’t meant to be a swimming beach, they said. Nobody ever swam here, they insisted. The waters were too choppy, the waves were too fast and powerful, and besides, I wasn’t even a particularly strong swimmer. We had a pool in our backyard, and I was told to swim there, with supervision of course. But the lukewarm, placid waters of the pool served as a poor substitute for the allure of the dangerous, enticing ocean.

When I was eleven years old, I learned that some people did, in fact, swim in the ocean. Late one night, when I was supposed to be sleeping but couldn’t, I gazed out the window and saw two women, illuminated by the light of the full moon, running towards the water. My eyes followed them until they blurred together with the sea and I could see them no longer.
