Surfing in Less than 150 Characters

When we have something taken away from us it can often leave a empty space. It can leave us with a sense of loss, anger and or even anxiety. When I say something taken away, in this case obviously self isolation as a result of the Corona Virus, but this still leaves us left wanting for the things we can't have or do, like surfing.  In 2016 I broke my foot and went down hard with pneumonia, and for two separate periods, what I loved to do was taken away. Surfing and Cycling were temporarily off the  Good Times List. But, after weeks of rehab for both scenarios, they were also my means of recovery too and such a positive part of this time. In this case we will get these activities back again, it will be part of our recovery, and for many might just be a catalyst of real change for many.

To compliment the time lost, I wrote words, short stories and its a great exercise to keep the mind active. One little exercise is describing the things we love in 150 words.

Here's mine.....

Surfing is,,,,,,,

Surfing is pure escape and hydrotherapy; my spiritual rinse. Surfing is learning, decision making and choice. Adventure, self-expression and happiness; Surfing is Flow.
