that tomorrow (today) we would do something and get llunch.. so this morning at
around 830 my father decides to go to the beach (cape cod) and asked if id liek
to come to windsurf and stupidly i told him no, i was going to see elana (my
girlfriend) and he asked again telling me that there was alot of wind
forecasted.. stupidly i said no thanks..he left and i checked the weather
forecast for falmouth cape cod and it said it was steady 18 knots with gusts to
30... i figure i must reeaaaallly like elana if i did this..but then again im

I must say, this is one of the most touching emails I have read in a long time. If
ever a movie were made about windsurfing, this would have to be the story...The other
important thing to point out is that you will have years of being in the dog house
with your S.O. and probably your employer because of windsurfing priorities. Its
probably best to get everyone used to it as soon as possible (well, school might be a
just a little more important)....

Things that should always be blown off to go windsurfing:
1. Spouces/girlfriends/boyfriends
2. Employers
3. Family outings
4. Weddings
5. Other sports

Following my own advice I'm now in Maui and have been windsurfing every day for
almost 2 months.... but i'll be back to Boston in Sept to find work, see my
family, go to a wedding and probably play a little golf... but NOT if its windy
out!!!

Don't beat yourself up to badly, kid.  So you missed an epic day, that one perfect
day where everything happens just the way you always wanted it to. It's just like
when you can feel the wind in your hair and the warmth of the sun on your skin,
every muscle in perfect tune with the motion...the heart-pounding, nostril-flaring,
breath-taking e***ment...and I feel great because it just feels so good
inside...one with the natural world raging around me.  And after a day like that,
to find that deep  calm serenity  because your entire body is completely spent is
just the greatest feeling.  Hmm... I seem to be getting carried away here.  It's
been a month since I've had any decent wind.

Brian, this is called supplication.  Don't do it again.  Make sure she knows what
your priorities in life are and well, that any plans are subject to change at the
last minute.  Better yet, don't make plans unless you absolutely know it won't
blow.  If she's smart, she'll join you.  There's nothing better than having a shred
bette to love.

So much to learn, so little time.
Worship her completely in the calm;
cherish her adoration when it blows.
