Happiness Is . . .

I began the day shivering under leaden skies, then sliding through satiny smooth water; and ended my swim with wind, waves and rain. It was a magnificent swim. Now, of course, there isn't a cloud in the sky and the air conditioning is battling the heat.

There wasn't much to see out in the blue blue deep water. Whale fish came swimming by a few times accompanied by air bubbles rising from the depths, but I didn't see a single whale this morning. And I don't care! I really don't. Put me in the ocean and I am happy.
