Penguins

I accomplished today’s goal earlier than planned, I took a walk on the beach instead of going little bit further. It was a cloudy day, not so many people were there around dusk.

I walked for a while and then, swam. The ocean was a mirror of the sky, I imagined my bed was the ocean (waterbed indeed!) and my blanket was the sky while I was floating on my back. Ah our planet earth is so beautiful. Is this a luxury life or what?! Thanks to the universe!

The color of the night sky came down to the ocean and I was getting cold, I dried myself up and walked through a property of the Hilton hotel.

Penguins! I saw penguins. There were penguins in Hilton village, here in Hawaii. I felt sorry for them. I wished they could fly…

I’ve seen how they swim in some TV shows, they swim like a bullet. Well, they don’t have to be able to fly, they can swim. I can’t tell penguins ‘you are in the birds family, so you have to fly!’

Anyway, there was no cage or fence or anything around the penguins, it was outside, although they were just there. The beach was 100 steps away from their place. They have no idea how close the ocean is…

I pictured them marching to the beach, diving into the ocean one by one… free at last! I saw that one of the penguins was me. Quack! (oops is it a duck?)
