The Sun Should Set On The Sea
When we are children we have a single perspective on the world we live in usually defined by the boarders our family sets for us. So at 6 years which I consider the first year of being really conscious about what was happening around me and remembering events even later through the years I had one certainty that the sun sets over the sea . That’s because Albania’s coast faces only west so we had these amazing sunsets that fascinated me turning the sea in different shades of gold.
So the first real disappointment that I can remember is when on holidays in Greece with the seashore facing east and the sun setting behind me over the mountains. Since then there is always some kind of a sad feeling when on holidays somewhere where the sun doesn’t set on the sea.
