We are perceiving the lighthouses when we are coming from the sea and we are coming closer and closer to the mainland. And the lighthouses are used to mark that you are nearby the landscape, and when it is trouble to see the landscape due to bad weather, we can just see the lights from long distances.
The earliest lighthouses were found in Egypt for more than 2000 years ago. And there have been several variants of these houses, and some countries used bascule light to show where the seafarers should go, and in Scandinavia we find these early start of the lighthouses in Denmark, Sweden and Norway. And there has been much history about being on the sea and in the oceans, and sometimes one feared the water and the sailors if they met bad weather, and some of them did not succeed about surviving the stay in the ship or boat on the water. There was so bad weather they did not meet the requirements with steering the boat in bad weather.
Some people have drowned at sea during the years, and some did not find the mainland, and therefore they ended their life at sea, and we are using lighthouse to mark that you are nearby the landscape. And we are using the sea for transport between A and B, and we are reaching the landscape when being in a foreign harbor, or while being at home. And you know, you should do what you want everywhere where you go, and sometimes there can be danger and little intelligence behind your choices.
You are free to make your choices in life, and sometimes things are sensible, and other times they can be stupid. And we need to travel at sea alone or together with other people, and together we often have a better and more nice time while being in the salt water, and some are also travelling on lakes and in rivers, and you can in principle travel where you want when being out there. The lighthouse is a house with light, and therefore the name just like it is.
The sea is a reminder of many things, taking all our personalities and our ways of being outside at the ocean, and we need good knowledges about how to steer the boats and the ships. So, what is the trouble of being at sea? Well, any calm and dangerous sea is a powerful reminder of the impermanence and delicacy of human life and accomplishments. So, we get the life and the death when being at sea, and in most cases it is going in good manners, and people survive from being out there. And sometimes there are noises also, marking where you are, and the lighthouses can have different frequencies of lights when being different places, and there are also different kinds of light, and different times when the lights is on and off, and there are some typical characteristics behind every lighthouse, and therefore we get the attention from the lighthouse in question about where we are and have been.
What is the main point with the lighthouses? Well, they are there to warn mariners of dangerous shallows and perilous rocky coasts, and they help guide vessels safely into and out of harbors. And therefore we should most often come over rough sea with our life in our bodies. And transport is the main point at sea, and the second thing is to survive the crossing.
So, where can we travel when being in a boat and in a ship? Everywhere where it is possible at the planet, and we are out there either within national borders, or we are in rough sea being far from the landscape, but many nations have ownership at the sea and at the lakes, and you choose your travel, and you have the destiny as you have when being out there in the water, and we are having pleasure, utility, inspiration and good sight of being out there in the salt water or in the fresh water.
So, the lighthouses are made as a house with a hat on the top, and some are not having anything on the top, so there is no hat, and there are also one color or several colors on the lighthouse, and this is due to the fact of being aware of what is inside the riskfree areas. Life is always risky since we can die. Our heart and our brain cannot be determined by the will and the desires, but we live as we live.
