My Facebook memories gave me something interesting yesterday. I had forgotten writing it but I do have a vague memory of this April day last year. I thought you might enjoy reading it as much as I did.
I made it to Lake Alma for a quick walk tonight. There were little turtles sunning in their usual spot on the log in the water's edge and one Canada Goose splashing and playing not far away. All the little turtles jumped in when I got too close except one guy who had no fear and chose to stay put while his companions fled.
The goose? Lots of others looked on while he splashed around, embodying pure joy amidst what appeared to be harsh judgement from his companions. Do geese judge each other? I don't know.
And then I noticed this gentleman (pictured). He was oblivious to the world. The sun sparkled in the water and life went on around him but he didn't care. He just seemed to be enjoying the moment.
They all were enjoying the moment. Go do that, friends. Stay in the sunshine, splash like no one's watching and just enjoy your life. It's too short to do anything else.
