    "For me, this epitomizes and reminisces of childhood innocence in a sense that as youth, in many cases, we tend to experience such persistent and perpetual feelings of wanderlust that it overwhelms us and swallows us up, because we're all so sheltered and we so desperately long for freedom, for a change of scenery and for independence and I suppose that's exactly what the sailboat symbolizes in my perspective. It's almost as if you're holding your entire future in front of you with your eyes closed, because you're breathing it in and you're dreaming; dreaming of something that feels so tangible, yet so surreal, simultaneously. But instead, since you've grown older, you're reflecting on those times of adolescence when all of your treasured material items mirrored precisely what you perceived your future would resemble and soon enough, you'll sail around the world, because your future is waiting, and it's almost here, and you're just grasping it by a thread within the spaces between your fingertips and it feels so real."
