The day I became myself again

Hi, my name is Carlos Anguizola. I've been surfing for 15 years. I am almost 30 years old. From age 15 to 18 surfing was a part of me. Then I went to College, started working and never stopped surfing, but somewhere along the way, It was not a part of me anymore. I started trying a new sport called the rat race, and for 5 years I was successful at it, but not happy. Truth be told, three years ago the sport hit on me again. I started discovering that this is not just a sport, this is a way of life, it is a philosophy, in which the rat race (which had me pretty sick by the time) wasn't a part of it. The picture you are seeing was taken in an island (I am not revealing the place) in the Republic of Panama, from where I am. That day was very spacial, 4 - 6 feet with one of my best friends Cienfue, who was learning at the time. Joking that day, after a super session, we said to each other, you know this sport is like no other sport, it is a "Sport of Kings". That very day, I did my comeback to surfing, and I became a happy person again. I left my job and the rat race, now I have my own company and I am my own boss. This doesn't mean I work less, It means I play by my rules. Now, my serious surfing years sum up to 8 years (although an interesting fact is I never left it). After I took this decisions, only positive things started happening to me. This 2008 my New Years Resolution is surfing at least once a week (I have achieved that goal by 98% I would said). If you are a surfer, you know what I'm talking about. If you are not a surfer, probably this is making you think or you are thinking that I am nut's. The thing is that only a surfer knows the feeling. In this blog, I will be posting the good sessions that are waiting for me and my good friends, and talking about life and philosophy. Hope you enjoy it.
