but i digress...

last night i attempted to post to the blog via my blackberry, which is apparently doable. but because it would have to be sent as a text message, i realized there was no way i would be able to get my thoughts in to such a compressed space. hence, no entry from yesterday. this may sound like a lame excuse, when in reality, i had plenty to say about my yesterday. so now i will just have to do two entries today to keep my promise to myself intact. there's nothing worse than lying to yourself. well....there are things that seem worse, but at the end of the day, YOU are the only person you HAVE to live with for the rest of your life....so why lie to your ultimate soulmate?

yesterday was a good day. a very good day. it's not as though the events of yesterday are the cure to all that ails me, but it was a fantastic reminder of just how life keeps going. it's so easy to get immersed in your current problems that it can be extremely hard to focus on the wonderful moments that happen in life, and that you can be a part of these events with little effort.
i jumped in the ocean yesterday. i got tossed about the pounding surf. i let it wash over me, surround me, lift me. i pounded back, dove under it, rose over it, rode it. it was righteous. simply, awesomely righteous. even when i tried to go over a crashing wave and remembered, all too well, sometimes you have to dive down when the urge is, in fact, to force the rising above. learning to go with the flow is never more obvious than when bobbing about in a restless sea. i learned a lot yesterday. i'm sure in the coming days, upon further reflection, it will become even more clear to me what the universe was teaching me in those wonderful, refreshing, awesome moments when i became part of the bigger world around me. righteous.

Jealous of the Ocean. Very jealous.
