As a sailor and a diver both, I would say this is mostly the case! However, sailing for me involves time slowing down in many cases, and being one with the wind and the waves. The analogy you used is quite sound - just that in sailing there are also moments of reflection, of going for no purpose other than around - to no other destination, of just being out (in the sun, wind, waves.)

This is great imagery for me. I definitely live in Sailor mode most of the time, but the image of the diver exploring the depths really resonates. It will help me recognize those moments when she’s ready to pause and have a look around, so I can leash my Sailor long enough for an experience. Thank you!
