It's days like this when the list I began early on doesn't look much shorter, that I wish that life were as simple as it seems for this Burmese fisherman. Just the water, his boat and the day's quota. A day on a quiet lake with not an electronic gadget in sight sounds wonderful.
I know, be careful what you wish for. Simplistic might actually mean rough hewn living quarters and a lack of the amenities I enjoy every day. And, a long day on the water would, in my case, mean a bout of mal de mer and more than likely a bad case of sunburn. But the dream doesn't go away quite that easily. Not when the e-mail is dinging with yet another problem.
Ever had one of those days?

Yup, I have "one of those days" often! That's why holidays are mostly spent decompressing. Yes, the simple life seems so simple compared to what our everyday grind is, but... perhaps our day is simple to someone else? Hmmm...that's a thought!
