While I wait for photos and videos to back up to the new and suspicious external hard drive, thought I'd revisit the theme of this voyage. Sea Change. Ok a play on C-Change.  Most likable affiliation I noticed was a "Glasgow based organization committed to supporting real positive changes in the lives of individuals…" Although I like where I've come from, I would like to "build on the momentum". This was a catch phrase I picked up from working with IDEO a few years back.  IDEO is a Palo Alto based firm  dedicated to innovating around human behaviors. Anyway, as one turns the page…opens a new chapter…reinvents or even course-corrects, there is some exposure. You may feel naked, out of place, even a bit vulnerable. F'get about it. The feeling that is. The family was all recently in Hawaii and as I watched the massive waves approach shore I thought how people approach their golden, silver or rusty years. The following came to mind and really could apply to any sort of Sea Change:

Salty Frothy

The incessant march

Phalanxes of blue swells

Rhythmic orderly inevitable

White tipped as the end nears

Once tall now hunching

Sometimes stumbling tumbling

But ever moving forward

Some weaken, interest waning, shape melting

And then gone

Others long white manes flowing

Wind blown

Approach the end with weight and force

Their final statement loud and profound
