" I’m not striving for the ideal surfer’s paradise anymore, or the perfect life without obstacles. It doesn’t exist. Not that I don’t have preferences or dreams anymore. But it seems like the idea of paradise is just on the horizon, always, while life is here, under my feet, now.
Might as well enjoy it, learn to appreciate the good waves, the paddling, the ferocious storms, and the mundane moments - the quiet lulls between swells. "
― Jaimal Yogis , Saltwater Buddha: A Surfer's Quest to Find Zen on the Sea
