A wise, wise woman

I went out to the pier today while D took a nap and just enjoyed the quiet. As I said, the resort is only 48% full so its nice to have no one around. I walked to the end and sat cross legged and came as close as person who doesnt meditate can come to meditation.

 

Alma: Excuse me, Missus, may I disturb? (tip toeing towards me) 

Me: Of course! Come! 

Alma: I brought your Chardonnay…. 

Me: Mmmm… thank you. Im just enjoying the ocean. 

Alma: Yes..

Me: Were you born here? 

Alma: Yes, just a few miles from here. 

Me: Have you traveled from here? 

Alma: Why would I? 

Me: (nodding) 

We both were quiet for a few moments listening to the waves. 

Me: Alma, Why is it so amazingly beautiful? 

Alma: (pausing for a moment) I think….. that is a conversation for you and God, yes Missus? 

Me: (nods) 

Alma: Excuse me.. enjoy.. (walking away quietly)
