sheltered

I just overheard an old guy in a starbucks talking about plans for the Chinese new year. he said his daughter has never seen the sea (he's from Australia). interesting, I thought, that she's seen china and not the sea. pretty awesome, I think. then he said that he's gonna go to the sea with her and her husband.

I think it's amazing how much I've been able to do in my (thus far) short lifetime. I've seen a lot, learned a lot, experienced a lot. to be of married age and to never have seen the sea? reminds me of when my mom and I went up pike's peak and met some 30-odd year old people from florida who had never seen snow.

what a life I lead!
