A Gallery of Thoughts, Pictures, and Memories

hello 2015

The year’s beginning is always full of hope.  Been there, done that, got the t-shirt.  What really happens is that you have another year ahead, and for those creative types, it gives a fresh canvas with a new palette full of colors – you choose – you think (!)

Well, the other day, we had that experience where you get so amazed you can’t stand yourself… at least, I always do…  These beautiful creatures are likely more intelligent and live the best example of existence of any beings on our planet…  Think about it.

These creatures are not excessive.  They kill only what they eat.  They have communities and seem to have the whole leadership thing down without imposing undue cruelty to anyone in the group.  Probably need to check my facts, but I think it is so.

They somehow have figured out how to keep scary predators away most of the time – sharks are afraid of them – go figure…

At any rate, having this experience of suddenly being surrounded by these beautiful creatures – having them put on a show, and two of them dive under the little boat we were in – made us feel like they picked us to surround and entertain, clicking, splashing, dancing (didn’t catch that on the video, but I was madly trying to grab my iPhone and catch the most that I could – wish I had…) get what I could, while standing in a boat with fairly much choppy sea around us,  and then the final tail slapping – the whole experience was like watching a fireworks display!  The tail slapping was like the finale!

New Year… followed two days later…  We can choose to be optimistic.  Lots of reasons for that…

Let’s hope that this was a sign…  We need a good year, as always…
