How I wish I were an upside down jellyfish. I envy them the ease of their existence. One might say that it would be boring but I think otherwise... to lay on the ocean floor and wave my tentacles, letting the bare necessities life come too me... it sounds so content.
Today I went to see a shrink. I was sitting in her waiting room, and I was content. I had a book, I was the perfect temperature in the sunshine, I could see a finger of the Chesapeake bay from where I sat. The chairs were comfortable, not your normal straight-backed waiting room chair. There was a wave maker (that did make me feel a little like I was an honest nutcase who might go off at any time). It was there that I reflected on yesterday's trip to the Aquarium, where I first saw an Upside down jellyfish. I was content, just sitting with my thoughts where I am warm and happy.
