The Blue


The conference venue is not a hotel. But it has a swimming pool.

When I get a little claustrophobic from it all, I take a 10-minute break outside.

It storms. I watch the rain fall.

The thud of the rain is soothing. I have this impulse to dive into the inviting blue.

Obviously I can't. So I close my eyes and imagine the blue wash over my head with its blessed relief.

I take a deep breath and feel the cool calm sink in.

Sometimes bliss and peace is all in the mind amidst the storm. Looks like you are at least having some fun up North with that sushi and sake... Drool....
