Post AKCR Thoughts : Pt. 2 - Water, Glorious Water

Why are some of us so drawn to water?

I have thought about this many times. Motocross athletes impress me - but I have zero desire to become an expert in that sport (unless they add a "Double Backflip Into A Warm Lake" category. Though I guess that'd be kind of stupid. Nevermind).

But if there's water...

It's just the most amazing substance on earth - in a lot of ways, it's the opposite of fire. Nothing can live in fire, nothing can live without water.

There's a religion / belief system called Aruveyda that deals with this. It's similar to a lot of other generalized groupings that take people's personalities and seek to answer the questions of who the person is and what they like and why.

I prefer Brain Types because it's much more specific and delves deeper into core motives, but on a flight back from Australia a couple years ago I sat next to a guy named Peter Crone and we had a great convo about both BT and Aruveyda (he's big into that) - I found it pretty interesting, and while generalized, fairly accurate.

The irony is I am very much a water AND a fire person. A bit of a paradox, perhaps? :)

Yes indeed. But it's the combination of the two that make me who I am, and it's the combination of warm weather (sunshine, heat) and water (rivers, lakes, oceans) that make me smile the most.

Push, pull, hot, cool, just give me sun and water.
