Hello, my friends. Hello to the void. I greet you once again, a few yards from where I greeted you 2 thursdays ago. Seems so far, doesn't it?

I just took a plunge into the deep end. Quite literally. Scuba diving is a fascinating thing. Equal parts terrifying and calming. sometimes both. Some time you will be so swept away by the otherworldly atmosphere and gravity that you are just in awe, and for a moment forget you are anywhere strange. These are the best moments, for you start to breathe just like any other day or place. It's easy and thoughtless. And that's how it should be. But then sometimes your thoughts are consumed by the thought that you are breathing through a tank and tube. The mind is on fire with disasters and tragedies. It's these moments where breathing feel strange and hard and desprate. Thats no good. But that's the balance. And I find that beautiful. 

Goodnight,

Calvin Landreth
