a day worthy of mention

It’s funny… yip so I use that phrase too often, but you know I use it cause it works and I haven’t found an alternative,. Today has been a pretty awesome day…ok no, today was an awesome day, I met with an acquaintance and I think I can now call him my friend. He is a older guy and has experienced a lot I am going to leave it there as well this is my blog and is about me :D(ok that’s not the reason but is a good enough one). At any rate we went snorkelling over a wreck it was great. It was the kind of experience that feeds you with the energy to share it, and the energy to persevere till the next occasion when it will be that good. To clarify the wreck was not a national geographic scene with coral and photoluminescence blah blah blah (not that that wouldn’t have been cool) it was a kelp forest!!! Yes I said forest!!(this blog is named leafwing) :D, something I have been very keen to explore since I first saw kelp, you see I have done some fresh water snorkeling and there is something a person can not really portray in words about being blow the surface of the water(in silence) looking up to the surface with plants reaching to the light like pillars to the sky, the way the light dances over objects making everything move and then the ability for you to fly… yes fly you can swim up to the light slowly rising to the top of a plant anchored to a spot and you free to move around it like a bird to a tree(be it in slow motion). Then you get to see all the creatures’ wild a free and in some cases sharp pointy and somewhat painful :).

Well my snorkeling was great, it was cold but great… thinking of upgrading my wetsuit :)

I also visited a new beach, I have never seen such beautiful water, ok I lie I have but it was always somewhere in the Mediterranean and in a calendar. But this was REAL!

Then I road home, on a long winding road on my bike it was…. You guessed it... GREAT!!!

I did some other things today too, but I need to just jump to the emotion of my mood now, I am a “religious” person, I would have used the term “spiritual” however I find that term tends to lean toward a self structured belief system as apposed to a personalised belief in a pre existing belief “structure”.

(All terms are used loosely but this is not a theology blog)

Padding and intro aside...

There are moments when God reveals some of himself to you and you have to be blind or damaged not to see Him, today was one such day, I have snorkeled, walked, ridden, shopped, spoken, listened and relaxed, then I watched the mist roll in from the sea and saw the world look and feel romantic, the light as the sun fell beneath the cloud and mist, covering the city and harbour in a soft warm light and the mist defusing the harsh lines of reality, as I absorbed in the view(trying take pictures, none of which doing any justice) the gentle scent of one of my neighbour's incense wafted past, just ever so subtle a spicy aroma that combined with the moment to make it wow.. just wow.

I wish you all such moments... filled with contentment and well being.

NB. Please do not comment on this, I kinda don’t want to know who reads these.
