It is the place where I am right now and some people that I have met here.
Conversation I have had.
That is where it is staying at the moment.
Not a moment in time or something I specifically want to keep.
A memory it will be, one day.
Perhaps already after finishing this story.
The deeper meaning I am still finding out, however it is something that keeps me questioning, but I just don’t know very well what that is.
The question is even a question and somehow this is where it ends.
So, I thought of writing things down.
I believe mainly for myself.
I don’t know if people are actually reading what I am putting out there, but if they do, that makes me happy.
Thanks for doing that.
The gratefulness is all mine.
Just so you know.
I am at a place where there are a lot of people surfing.
I don’t do that, in case you were wondering.
Although I tried one day in the past.
That day, I was mainly hugging waves and gasping for air while I was trying to not drown.
Yes, that is also a reality of surfing.
It was ok for me, actually.
Not a specific lesson I learned.
Now I just watch others surfing in the ocean.
Sitting on the top of the clip, watching.
I think that is a better place for me than trying to get the water out of my nose and ears.
There is much to stay about the surf community and even some things I had never heard.
A form of code who gets the wave first and even people getting frustrated with surfers who are learning and like me are kissing sand, instead of finding that balance on the board.
Honestly I didn’t know that, that people were getting mad about new surfers.
I can’t imagine that, for the simple reason I have never accomplished to surf a wave.
But I already told you that.
This is where I heard a story about how deep it goes here.
I mean, especially in high seasons there are a lot of people coming to this kind of place.
It holds the same when it comes to winter seasons, at ski resorts.
The same difference is what is happening there.
I believe where I am not is not an exception.
Let me get to it.
I believe there is no mystery about it and generally we know that this is happening.
I was just amazed when hearing it, perhaps it would do the same for you.
Where you can make that change for yourself, or find out that this is what you like.
I am talking about the ease of kissing, perhaps even doing other things and anything else that is related to that.
The sun and ocean are setting a mood.
I get it.
Then there is the aspect of time where people are on holiday.
Surfing for perhaps a week or two, where people don’t have to take that kind of responsibility.
It is something I have also experienced.
Not that anything happened, but I was in a bar.
This guy was staring all the time at me and for some reason we did have a conversation at one point that evening.
He mentioned a couple times where he was ‘hanging out’ that week and ‘if I was going there too?’.
Not so much a question nor an invitation, but more to make sure we were able to meet in that time manner.
I didn’t give any answer to him and I don’t think I ever thought of going to these places he was mentioning when I went home that evening.
What I am trying to say is that this kind of meeting is on the surface.
Perhaps it is even related to surfing.
Yes, I thought about this literate joke.
But when I think about it, it isn’t that funny.
More an awareness that this is happening and perhaps it does have a form of truth.
Because there was this other story that I heard, about surf instructors.
Where they were waiting till the last day of the surfing week and would be doing things that are not meant for this paper.
Just to be sure the girls would leave the next day and there wouldn’t be any drama.
These were the words said.
That there wasn’t going to be any drama, when they waited till the last day and also that there would be a new can of girls coming and everything would start all over.
I am just telling that story, my ears were hearing.
At the same time I was thinking.
‘How deep is that love?’
I don’t even know if that remains on the surface, but I think we can at least say that this isn’t a form of love.
If you would ask me at least.
Perhaps it has to do with the tides of the ocean.
It comes and goes.
Like those girls, it is easy for these boys to catch them like that.
Surfing those waves.
I didn’t write it down like this on purpose, but it could be a form of truth.
Not a blame I am putting out there.
It could be the match they are making.
Perhaps just a certain mindset they are having. Not just those guys, but the girls also.
Who believe in the mystery and coolness of those surf dudes.
I guess it is just easier to fall for that than to make sure you don’t drown.
