It totally was fun, though...

"That looks fun," I thought, as I squinted into the sun to see the huge breakers crashing up against our convoluted volcanic rock formations at the beach this afternoon.

"I bet I could get all the way from those rocks there to the other side of that point way over there. I can only see about two places I'd have to jump over a twenty-foot crevasse with the sea crashing insanely below...or maybe three. And I bet if I timed it right, I'd be able to get over those bits where the sea is landing right up against the cliff base. Bet I could do it without even getting my new runners wet.

"Yeah, I bet I could totally get all the way over there without falling in."

No. No, as it turns out, I can't.

But I bet I could if I tried again tomorrow...

... You know how with an iceberg at sea, that nine tenths of the thing are under water? With rocks you don't have any such upper-bound.

So... you know... take good care of yourself. Providence put a lot of work into keeping you alive!
