Wandering Along the Path: Right Speech
I've just returned from three days away at a hot springs. Heaven! The temperature of the water is between 92o and 102o. You bob up and down like apples in a barrel. We took our time with everything, and got up late enough to miss breakfast completely. The pool is so warm even the rain doesn't deter people from swimming. Though there isn't much swimming or exertion, just floating on floats or noodles. Every fifteen or twenty minutes you have to get out and rest and drink water. We've been to this place before a few times, but this time we really went with the flow. We relaxed. We didn't get in the car, as we could walk into town and eat there, or wander, as we did, in the neighborhoods and admire gardens and victorian houses. We didn't talk much either, and I noticed that a lot of people were in the pool, they mostly were quiet as well, even the children. I seldom saw a cell phone, and because you cannot drink alcohol and use this pool, the roudyness was saved for a pool below that is ten degrees cooler, where you can have a drink. Peace and quiet. Cliched phrase, but lovely to experience.
