This is the day I picked myself up off the floor of political defeat. I went to the ocean to decompress, to cry, to get myself together.
I walked down to the edge of the cliff to watch the water, storming and pounding the basalt that makes up the rocky shorelines of the Oregon Coast. I said to myself, completely aware of how sappy it sounds, “Maybe the ocean is feeling our pain.” and then “Nope, the ocean is just the ocean.”
The ocean endures. So will I.
