All this talk of Joy has one of my friends wondering whether the Dalai Lama has hacked into my blog and commandeered it. I don't think the Dalai Lama is much of a hacker... but one never knows, now does one?
As the weekend approaches, I suppose some attention has been redirected to the question of whether or not this amazing surf crush will be in Tofino soon. Impossible to know... but one thing is for sure, that sticker is not going to be here before the weekend. I approved the final proof early yesterday morning, and by the afternoon, the custom vinyl cut-out decal for my new board was on its way to me.
I've had such a good time revelling in the possibilities these past weeks that I am a little fearful of change. Reality and knowledge can only limit possibilities... not expand them... which, I suppose, is whence came the cliché "ignorance is bliss." But I guess I'm going to find out one way or the other, sooner or later.
After some thought, I wonder whether my transference of so much energy into my new board is a pre-emptive coping mechanism... and then after further thought, I realize that I don't care if it is... because... what a beautiful board! How my whole life has changed! Look how it gleams in the sun! Think how many years of joy this board will bring! Calculate how many amazing rides I'll have! It is pure joy... and therefore pure good.
It is now two hours before meeting up with the surf team... when I get to show off my new boyfriend.
