I am finding out that many things traumatize us, and they're all worth taking seriously.<br />And, breathing.Supa Dupa Freshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07659738264922395349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3599655836040142750.post-40501791871262500752010-03-01T20:22:33.947-05:002010-03-01T20:22:33.947-05:00I agree with annie.

Water tickling your toes, or water bubbling a long way away from you, then BAM! you get hit with a wave that knocks you down and takes your breath.
