Today, I feel significant
I was walking on the beach around 7.30 am and a bicycle rider on A1A started waving to me. I paused my shuffle and he told me he had a sea turtle that he found on the road. He was on the other side of a tall sea wall and the only entrance was locked so I jogged over and he handed me this little creature through the gate.
Wow. There is the potential for that little fellow to be on this earth after I die.
I placed the turtle on the sand a few feet from where the waves stopped rolling up the beach and the trip began. The first wave hit the turtle very lightly, just enough to get the whole shell wet and suddenly the rate of movement increased - the little animal felt it. The next wave slightly lifted and deposited it a foot or two farther away. Then a dash was made and the next wave ended with a turtle floating momentarily in a nice calm. One last crashing wave came in before I lost sight.
