Charis Branson Says:
Five dollars to be a fish. I jump at the chance. My favorite movie when I was a kid was The Incredible Mr. Limpet. I quickly hand over the five dollar bill and am transported to a world of color and diffused light. I love the water and find its weight secure and its buoyancy liberating. I float above the ocean floor and feel less like a fish and more like a bird. How insignificant the world above when so much undiscovered magnificence lies beneath the massive oceans. As the day-to-day burdens disappear in the weightless environment I hope to elude my reclamation.
