Then I went fishing with my wife and dog. We didn't talk that much about work, or really about anything. I'm not sure what it is about being outside in the quiet cool night air, but it's relaxing. I feel connected to nature - and my dad and my brothers - and God - when I fish. I love watching my dog, Bonnie, with her genuinely innocent love for life - she runs into the water at anything that moves and runs up and down the bank smelling the air. You just know she'd do anything to help you catch a fish if she could just get her paws around a fishing pole. It's a funny thing... wanting to have company with you, but not wanting or needing to say anything.
I had a great time and we stayed past dark. I'm reassured things always have a way of working out.
No matter what I'm doing, I think I'll always wish I fishing.
