Peddling out against the waves that kept pulling me in. One of those rare occasions when I actually wish I'd put on more weight. Although, come to think of it, that might just increased my buoyancy in water as our body is composed of mainly water. With the soundtrack to 'The Fellowship of the Rings' playing in my head, I trudged further out, yet stayed close enough within the safety zone. For someone who's gone out catching waves only a handful of times, it is still a hit-and-miss. I found my spot, waited patiently, looked out further into the ocean, and felt the sea. Instinct, they say. You will know when it is coming. Incoming. I see it. I feel it. I hopped onto the board, tried my level best to peddle. Then it comes, it rises. I was lifted by the sea, and when it broke, that sudden drop escalated into a great adrenaline flush as I continued riding towards the shore. The only thing on my mind then was I Lived For This Moment.
