Inspiration

Watching Sunset from C-Dory on Lake Conroe

“NO WATER, NO LIFE. NO BLUE. NO GREEN.”
~ Sylvia Earle ~


C-Horse Anchored on Lake Conroe, Texas.

It’s somewhat ironic that water is my inspiration since, at the age of five, they pulled my lifeless body from a lake and revived it; my first breath radiating horrible pain through my entire body, which I recall to this day.

I’ve had a few close calls with water since, but it truly is my inspiration, in all its forms:

  • gazing upon it during a sunset
  • meditating in it in a sauna
  • skating on it
  • kayaking through it
  • tubing down it
  • racing across it
  • sailing gently on its waves
  • swimming in it
  • skiing on it

And of course my favorite is watching it capture diamond reflections from the sun and moon, and drinking it all in.

    The fact that it almost killed you does make for an interesting tension with your inspiration.

      That is what one would logically think. I’ve even thought about it; facing a fear, conquering the beast. But in truth, water brings me a GREAT sense of peace and connection. No fear of water…gators and sharks are another thing.

        I can relate to this a bit I think. I have a bit of a fear of the water, but yet near the water is one of my favorite places to be.
