    George Orwell (1986). “Coming Up for Air”, Harvill Secker

  • For me, surfing is as close a connection I can have with Mother Nature. To surf, you're riding a pulse of energy from Mother Nature. And it's strong. It's real. It's there.

    Thinking   Self   Light

There's something exhilarating about being open and honest.

Why not go ahead and get the victory?
