Just because...

Just because I need to take a break from writing my speech on the benefits of yoga on cancer patients.
Stress management
Freeing the mind
Freeing the soul
So I can put off studying for my lab practical concerning all the body systems of humans *and the pigs we dissected*
Veins and arteries
Ilium and plasmodesmatas
Cellular respiration
So that I don't think about weather or not the pictures I found of the whales being hunted to extinction would be considered "emotionally disturbing" or just "icky" by my speech teacher.
Babies taken from their mothers
Creatures we know nothing about
Destroyed
Wondering if this is really what I want.
Or if this is what I think I want.
Maybe both.
Or not.

What we want....Man, tough question.
We pay for what we want you know.
sometimes we pay a little, sometimes a lot.
Sometims it takes everything we've got to wish we'd never wanted it in thew first place.
*Whew*

I thought I knew what I wanted when I was your age. Now, I'm not so sure I knew what was best at the time. Not sure I still do.

But as I've gotten older, I've realized that it's not so much about the destination than it is about the journey.

You travel down the road you think is best at the time. If you discover it's not, then you take another road, discovering things about yourself along the way.

You'll be fine, Water Baby, whatever road you choose.
