*I'd rather stay here with me... I tell myself that a thousand times.*

There is a great widespread fear of the sea, of its depths, secrets and mysteries. No wonder if we consider all the stories and myths that surround it. That is what I have learned after learning to read and seeing what they do not know half the truth about.

I was born and raised in this house under the sea, I have rarely had the need to go out into the land reality, horrible things I have known happen on land, where humans abound, and I prefer to remain in the safety of my underwater home protected in part, because of the fear that many have of the depths.

Here I feel comfortable, I have what I need, food is provided by this space, an underwater river allows me to have fresh water, I can practice the water sport I want.

At night some fishes attracted by the light from inside my house come to the windows, one of my greatest amusements is to see the great variety that there is, in shapes, sizes and colors. My favorites are the abyssal fishes that have the possibility to **create their own light**, that's a show. 

#
 
There are times when I feel that I can communicate with them, that we have reached a kind of harmony and balance where no one hurts anyone. The natural and biological food chain is the one that prevails and where I do not intend to act to make the world go on. **I wonder if that could be possible out there, in what they consider normal.*

I've been out a few times in the evenings...

>### The reason?

**I like to see the moon?** I feel that the moon is magic, I don't understand why it is related to madness out there, but rather the more I see it I feel that I am becoming saner, because it lets me know that ***there is something beyond this earth, this ocean and that I am just a tiny point within all this infinity.***
 
I have read that life began in the water millions of years ago, something that does not allow me to understand easily because so much abuse towards the marine, is something similar to what happens with part of Africa, that the first humans (according to some theories) emerged there, in a remote place, being this reality Why so much abandonment to that population? These are things that are hard for me to understand and that is why I prefer to remain at peace with myself than to expose myself to a civilization that often fails to remember what is truly transcendental, such as its origin, its history, and from there, one step away from disrespect and mistreatment. 
 
*That is why I prefer to remain here, with me...*
