Swimming

Today I am grateful for the ability to swim - to feel the water on my skin and to submerge myself in that silent space where my thoughts are my own and where the regular breathing required by swimming gives me a meditative experience.  I am grateful to have use of my arms and legs to be able to swim.

I am also grateful for a husband who is loving and patient enough to help me apply hair colour in all the tricky places - even if he does miss a few gray spots

.....and I suppose that I have to be grateful for the 1 out of 14 images that were accepted on my dreamstime site despite the others not being technically wrong, my mud splattered girl made it!
