Anglerfish From its very beginning life has been tenacious even where the sun that sustains is away. Death creates life and life is voracious. We should all take a note from the patience of anglerfish, with their teeth and their twinkling lights. There are soggy rock places without any lights where long pillars grow because the tenacious water drips down as unstopping as anglerfish. You can erode but you can't take away.

Everything feels fresher by the sea because it’s such a pure, raw sense of nature, untouched by man. It’s just our duty to keep it that way."
