because

This is a beautiful still from Andy Irons "i surf because" short film from Billabong on Vimeo.

Maybe it's growing up near the beach, maybe it's the influence of friends, or maybe it's some internal cosmic rhythm, but I think I will always feel a connection to the water.


The last line "I surf because I'm always a better person when I come in" made me smile in the biggest, goofiest way.  I am the world's most horrific surfer, so it's not exactly about that.  It is about other things - my painting, creating, writing, music... that make me, within myself, feel like I'm a better person because of the experience and joy that they bring to my spirit.

Thank you Andy Irons, where ever you may be.
