Ever curious what life can compare to? I wrote this piece while on a train to Davis. I was passing through Martinez and looking at the water through the window. I love the Ocean mostly. As I was staring, I started comparing some of the ways life can resemble the ocean. This short story is my way of being hopeful that everything will turn out just fine even when you think you can't make it out of that one thing that is so big. Though i do hope you take this a sign to keep going. I hope you also feel free to translate it to however you feel. I hope you enjoy it! March to the Sea by Twenty One Pilots 4/11/2025

"I don't have terrible problems, and I know my life isn't bad like other people's", I added. "But it's as if I'm half and half", I shrugged. "Half satisfied, half disappointed, half happy, half sad". "I know it's silly though", I corrected myself while sitting up and shaking my head. "I know I don't have the right to say I feel-". "You don't have to be miserable to have depression", Matthew cut in while looking into the horizon. "You don't have to be poor, or unloved, or even bullied to feel like you're losing all hope", he added. Looking right ahead, he placed his hand on the water and threw some ahead, creating a 'splash' sound that interrupted our quietness. "You don't need water to feel like you're drowning", he pointed while looking at me with an intense look, as if begging me to understand and take my words back. "Never apologize for your feelings", he continued while moving a bit closer to me. "They are there for a reason".
