It is difficult to speak very sincerely because it may look immodest to an outsider.
This pier in the sea means a return to life for me. When I was a child, I almost drowned near such a pier, jumping for mussels. There was a storm and I started to get swept out to sea, and I didn't know how to swim. As I was drowning, I got angry, and my body figured out how to stay afloat. I swam to the shore holding a net with mussels in my hands.
Since then, life inside me has accumulated for an eternity.
