Another Pisces
I was born on March fifteenth at five thirty in the evening, the Ides of March, a Pisces sun, Leo moon and Virgo rising. A child with their head constantly in the clouds, a dreamer with an imagination so large I am now nearing twenty-nine years of age and I am still afraid of what could be lurking in the dark at night. Pisces, the fish, since the age of three I had endured years of swimming lessons and then moved on to competitive swimming, dropping out at the age of fourteen. I still find myself drawn to bodies of water, whether it is a bathtub in my apartment, the ocean, or an aquarium. In this hectic world, I find peace and solace in water.

He Would Give You the Shoes Off of His Feet
Have you ever seen pink water? Yes, pink. How about pink water on a beach? Well, one exists two to three months of the year in Colombia. Two years ago I visited a pink beach with a small group of strangers from all over the United States, but the color of the water quickly became a more minor detail in the story of my experience at the Salinas de Galerazamba.
