This afternoon, as my kids and I were talking, I mentioned that it was World Water Day. My kids looked at me like they were waiting for me to say something more.... so, I finished with: "All life is dependent upon water. Water IS life. If there's anything worth celebrating, it is definitely Water."
Normally on World Water Day, I'd wax poetic about how awesome water is... no doubt it IS magic. And the magic of water extends beyond its sustaining all life. In some cases, water makes life more livable.
does that even make sense? I guess, to me, it does because I'm thinking about my friends who run the
non-profit Ocean Cure. Ocean Cure utilizes the ocean by doing charity surf camps for medically fragile youth and adults because they believe in the powerful emotional and healing properties of the ocean. It's true.
Water sustains us, but it also helps heal us.
Ocean Cure is currently in need of funding to purchase four WAVEJET battery powered surfboard systems to broaden the work they do with Life Rolls On/They Will Surf Again, Wounded Warriors, Little Pink Houses of Hope and many other medically fragile adults and children.
