He makes me want to go back to swimming at Ives regularly. It has even much too long since I’ve been there. Thank you for the great motivating column, Colin🤗

Yes, indeed you did save the best for last! All of the essays have been engaging but this one really resonated. Having been a regular lap swimmer at Ives (pre-COVID) I can appreciate the world about which Colin writes. I know what he is talking about when he describes how the water can enfold you. I know that little community that surrounded me in my very early morning swim days. He makes me want to go back. Thanks for this one!

Danielle and I read this essay out loud on New Year’s Eve, after a peaceful meditation, and want you to know how deeply touched we are, with hope and gratitude for your insights and kindnesses. Thank you Colin, for your powerful perspective 💚🩵🏊‍♀️🏊‍♀️🏊‍♀️💚💚🌈🌈
