I was once told that there was a scientific study showing that humans are more likely to be a calmer person if one lives by large bodies of water. I have had the privallage in my life to have lived by the Pacific Ocean (Right across the street actually) for a little over 3 years while living in Carpinteria, CA, and I do have to say that I do remember that being some of the most relaxing, and peacful times in my life. There is something about the constant movment, and flow of water that seems soothing. I am enjoying being right by the water currently while visiting Seattle, WA.
