100,000 pounds of Reflection

Once in awhile you have those moments that really allow you appreciate God's beauty. And there is nothing like seeing a 100,000 pound Humpback whale less than three feet away from you 2 miles off the coast of Maui. I have just experienced this moment, courtesy of a marine biologist friend named CT, who took me and my wife and family on her little red inner tube boat just feet away from a Humpback whale and her 1 day old calf. Those moments take your breathe away and cause you to reflect on the beauty of this land and ocean and how magnificent it all truly is. Everyone should sit back and reflect on their own lives and how precious and beautiful it is, whether your situation is the greatest or the worst right now, life moves in clips and phases and everything will pass and go, the good and the bad, so don't take this time for granted and grasp the world around you with a new eye.
