The Girl and The Ocean

“Good evening,”
The girl said to the ocean.

~Good evening.~

The girl asked the ocean,
"Can you take me very far?"

The ocean answered
~That depends. I can take you to shores with many people or none. I can take you to the middle of my waters. I can even take you to the bottom of my floor if you wish.~

"Oh. Thank you, but that doesn't quite help me much."

~How so?~
The ocean replied, a tad annoyed.

"Where I want to go is much further than where you can take me."

The ocean suddenly understood.
~I see. In that case, you should probably talk to the stars.~
