[show more] I guess its more of a fear then a fascination. Theres just so much that hasn't been explored. And just the thought of all that water just seems to freak me out a little. And the fact that we don't exactly know whats at the bottom of all that water. But it does fascinates me that there is so much left unturned down there. The power of it fascinates me too. The waves, the pressure that must be involved in going to the bottom, and also the amount of life that calls the ocean home. Its just a little too much for me.
