Sitting on the patio facing the ocean, twenty feet away.  Two palm trees flank the pool between me and the wide expanse of water.  A white egret is facing me, drinking from the pool.  Or maybe it’s a heron… I really don’t know the difference.  If I lived here I’d know.  I’d also know why the ocean water has all these different colors from dark at the horizon to light, bright, turquoise at the sandy beach.  I have to remember not to let a coconut fall on my head as I walk beneath the trees. I also have to remember to drive on the left side of the road.  So much to remember, so much to learn… definitely one of the fun things about being alive.  You never know it all.

peace…….ag
