Ha Long Bay, Vietnam
A private boat trip around Ha Long Bay, Vietnam reminded us of how beautiful life can be. A cool breeze tamed the temperament of a hidden sun, while plate after colorful plate of delicious Vietnamese food arrived, perfectly timed as we sailed toward the island strewn horizon.
Lost in the distant shadows that rose and plunged into the bay, my eyes glimpsed moments that inspired poetry, while my beautiful wife sketched and painted in watercolor, the visual drama unfolding before us.
“There is no heaven but this one we are living.
There is no eternity, apart from this second
that never ends.
Breathe deeply this life.
Be in love with this moment.
It is all we will ever have.
It’s not perfect.
But it is enough.”
