I recently heard Seth Godin being interviewed and he shared a story about an experience he had swimming in the ocean in which he almost drowned. He said that although he was a strong swimmer, that morning, he found himself struggling with a serious undertow.

As I was soaking up the last minutes on MEA’s Baja campus just before writing The Pause (the poem I shared last month on Wisdom Well) waiting on my shuttle for the airport to arrive, I was taking in the beauty of my surroundings-soaking it all up.
