The Water...


While I was driving home this eve I caught myself staring at the roof of this huge building off in the distance. The way the sun was setting and reflecting off the roof made it a perfect gray blue, it was as if there was this huge body of water in front of me. It reminded me of the view of the San Francisco Bay from Treasure Island, looking east towards Berkeley. It also reminded of a conversation I had with a lovely friend while walking the Embarcadaro one evening not so long ago. We talked of how being near the water felt so expansive and yet so humbling, how it made you feel so very tiny and yet at the same time completely open and limitless. There is something very special about the water and being near it.
