patience

another beautiful sunny day here in the middle of the ocean. i'm sitting at the red elephant cafe here in chinatown. it's really nice to just be able to hang out in a coffee shop in the middle of the day. i'm on call for one of our moms right now. she's just starting the whole birthing process. it's a very weird space to be in, being on call for babies. i'm in this space, where you can't quite fully commit to anything, be in the flow of just "what is", constantly checking in with my intuition, as well as my intellect, and be ready for anything...waiting patiently.

i checked out the waves at our break this morning. windy, chunky, although some really nice sets every so often. i went out last night with my "loaner" board from kimo. bright yellow 9'0", thruster set up, with big fat rails. i put a few good dings in a couple of our boards. i've been resistant about gettting them fixed, for fear of missing out on my water time. i must say i'm attached to my single fin buddha board...it's become an extension of me.

i truly enjoy soul surfing. i've been going out at sunset, although it's windy & crazy...i just sit out deep, watch, listen & feel. every once in a while, i'll hop off my board and just float on my back. it's so amazing how my good days are when i'm completely in tune with the ocean & not getting caught up in where the line up is, where everyone's sitting. i've been catching some fat, juicy waves. it's sooo much fun!!! single fin teases me about how i sit out deep and just want the big bomber waves. i tried the baby waves, it's just not the same. i'm willing to wait.

once again, just paying tribute to how truly healing nature is.
