The river has become kind of a companion to me, like the Old Man and the Sea. Hi River, Bye River. I usually stop on the way home to check the water level, the speed of the river, the color, the waves, and generally, it's tempermant and how it's doing. It's a lazy, shallow river that doesn't like to do much (insert Narcissus symbolism here, ha!).
Anyway, during one of these Garrison Keeler moments, I realized how much my life has changed in the last couple of years. It's really slowed down in these last 7 months, which is super cool! Nowadays, I get to watch the river, sleep in, travel, chill out in Zen gardens, explore castles, play sports, learn Japanese, eat weird food, and ride around on my mama-cherry bike. Life is good!
This is my view everyday. It would mellow you out too!
