Abstract
For many years, our people have known that the ocean has limitless energy. Thus in both our daily lives and our culture, we respect and fear the majesty of the ocean. During every lunar New Year, the residents of Penghu Island offer up turtles made of rice and flour to the Gods. These turtles are regarded as lucky charms that will bring year long fortune to the fishermen battling angry waves to earn a living. Through their solemn rites, we are reminded that the fates of man and ocean are intertwined and that our strength comes from the ocean.
