100th Post!

This is the 100th post of my blog, get excited!

Here is a poem for your perusal:

EXULTATION is the going
Of an inland soul to sea,—
Past the houses, past the headlands,
Into deep eternity!

Bred as we, among the mountains,
Can the sailor understand
The divine intoxication
Of the first league out from land?

-Dickinson

I love the line, Can the sailor understand... it's true. I wonder what I miss because it is routine. This is why I love hanging out with Amy! She savors life. I try to do likewise.
