Waves are violent and completely indifferent. They are the creatures of the Magnificent Ocean and have been here forever and will be as long as the planet exists.
I did a contract on a cruise ship as a waiter. Crossed Atlantics twice and visited 19 countries. In Mediterranean the waves were rough. Our old lady rocked and pitched. And it was 55 000 tons. Imagine, how these fugitives and refugees feel when they cross Mediterranean in those rusty boats, packed like sardines? God bless them all.
Best regards,
