because i am so obsessed with water.

about a month ago i was flying over denver.
if you haven't been to colorado, it is very mountainous.

but the beautiful thing about mountains are the hidden gems you find within the rocky peaks.

looking down from the plane there were lakes, and when i say lakes i mean hundreds of lakes throughout those mountains. 

this plain ride is where i was reminded of my aqua-a-holic syndrome.

now, the thing i miss most about my island in 

the sun is being in the water everyday.

in fact, i was in the water so much, i took it for granted.

but this isn't about me being home sick for my little island home.

 that's a whole thing in and of itself.

because i am currently obsessing over mountains and the hidden lakes and rivers that run through them.

i am fully aware of the fact that we would die without water, but what if all we had was water to drink, what if we could never submerge in water, and swim like mermaids through the currents.

being in utah for the past four months, working 50 hours a week, and being on bed rest for the past two weeks has left me with a lot of my summer being deprived of all the beautiful water in the world.

literally water is the best thing in the world.

the ocean, rivers, lakes, rain, waterfalls, snow, drinking water... i could go on forever.

and just think of all the things in life we would be deprived of without water...

swimming, skiing, surfing, wakeboarding, hiking to waterfalls,

kayaking, floating on our backs, scuba, snorkling, jumping off really high things into water, looking at the sunset of the ocean horizon, or the moonlight on the water, again I could continue.

people... sharks cove would be gone!

and i can't even get started about the luscious blues, greens, turquoise, uhhh its so wonderful.

i just wanna drink you in all day long.

so water,

you are the best thing on the earth. 

i love you.
