Comment on Small Things with Great LOVE by Chris

Liz,

I only want to add that in my experience a conspiracy of small things done with great love changes the world.

Thanks for the listing of your favorite sites. Mine include the following:

5gyres.org (on plastics in our oceans)
surfrider.org (widely know and gaining strength and purpose every day)
sierraclub.org (powerful voice for animals and their wild environments)
oceanconservancy.org (researching and reporting on the health of our oceans)

Home is where we find ourselves; welcome home to the States.

Best,
Chris

Hey Liz!, you got it!. No way hurring things up will make up for better endings…actually is the opposite.=)

I am looking for ways to send those chocos ASAP. Hope you are having fun with friends and family in mainland. I whish I could send chocos sooner but I rather send them woith someone going to USA is possible.
Anyway, you ll get them. I promise.
This occurred recently writing another comment on religion and surfing I found kinda interesting…
They both (surfing and religion/spirituality) could be good to excelent if done unselfishly. Like True love, it only brings out the best in people..

My best cheers .=)

Hi Liz..well your departure from Tahiti was a sad one.. Meeting you there with all my girls was a really fun experience.. i have some great pictures of you wake boarding in the lagoon ripping it up with Kepi on the throttle ..and sharing special moments on the beach with all our family….Truly paradise is where you find and meet people to share your love of life… see you soon again… the girls miss you and I have no doubt we will all cross paths again sooner rather than later.. Aloha for now !!

Love rests on no foundation.
It is an endless ocean,
with no beginning or end.
Imagine,
a suspended ocean,
riding on a cushion of ancient secrets.
All souls have drowned in it,
and now dwell there.
One drop of that ocean is hope,
and the rest is fear.

-Rumi

liz,

you are an inspiration! perhaps you have docked Swell and are headed home for the weddings, book project, etc. perhaps you have chosen instead to sail on…either way i hope this poem brings some clarity when that is called for and some comfort when you are feeling uncertain.

peace and love,

mark

Were those the events of an early departure or was the vessel “stuck” in Bora Bora because they waited too long and the crossing was now a problem? I think (perhaps too much) that long passages are something to listen more to your brain on and less to your heart. But I’m at a desk too much and in the surf too little these days.
