Hi @tyme Water people can be freshwater or saltwater.
Freshwater people generally live inland and have a river in their country.
Saltwater people live on the coast - as there's lots of coast in Australia, there are many different saltwater peoples. The dreamings for each fresh or salt water people will involve that body of water.
When I saw saltwater background to a First Nations person it would indicate First Nationhood, to a non-First nations person, they probably think I like near beach or like the ocean or something, but it doesn't mean anything else unless they are educated in First Nation culture

@Spirit_Healer I've started living on my own since October last year, but for me it feels so much better being by myself without having to worry about the people you have to deal with on a regular basis, especially for me personally when they dont give me the treatment that i deserve to be treated. i knew i had to leave out of my parents house because i felt a lot worse emotionally and mentally when i was with them.
I understand about the loneliness and lack of social interaction part. I personally don't feel lonely even though I've been alone throughout almost my whole life, but that's cause I'm very much used to it. xD but I don't feel lonely.
