On the Beach...

Lessons learned from the sea turtle...

While in Hawaii (I love saying that!) I made a friend while snorkeling. I was a little apprehensive about snorkeling since I hate having my head underwater, but I faced my fears and met Mr. Turtle (actually it could have been Ms. Turtle)...Even though the cove was filled with tourists checking out life under the sea. The turtle stayed it's course. He had a destination in mind and wouldn't be distracted. His destination...The beach for a well deserved rest...Sometimes we all need to leave the water and take a rest on the beach. Once he reached the beach he slept for a while again not deterred from his activity by the throngs of people (myself included) wanting to capture the moment! Once he was complete he returned to the sea and off he went!

If only I could maintain the focus of the sea turtle
