We Bobble Along, in Control and Out of Control

We take a lot for granted.

On storm tossed days I love to put on my wetsuit and fins and swim and bobble in the surf. I am sort of in control but I am part of something much bigger that could alter my control.

Sort of like life. I plan my days. But at anytime while walking in the city a tile could fall off a roof and end my day. I could get in an accident or get hit by lightening. I could be running a successful company and a global melt down could terminate all my customers.

I could be in great health by eating properly and exercising everyday and something turns it upside down. The only thing I can really count on is the Joy I can experience at this moment.

I am connected to the ocean I love to bob in and the full moon I love to watch. They are samples of the exhilaration I feel that makes me happy to be alive. Don’t take your control for granted. Don’t wait for a special event to feel happy. Don’t think you are not a part of the universe that even animals can be seen enjoying everyday.
