“I gotta go,” Ari stuffed a sandwich into her mouth with one hand and a sweater into her bag with the other.
“Wait!” Ella’s eyes remained on her phone’s screen.
“Can’t.” Ari grabbed the keys. “I’ll be late for work.”
She left before Ella said another word, or at least, without hearing it.
They needed her job. Ella, per usual, was “between jobs.”
And I’m mostly between heaven and earth, Ari chuckled. She got into the car, shifted gears, and took a deep breath. Meditation was a crucial part of acrobatics. Even if it was not Cirque, but only shark-diving.

LOL! Yep. Meditating BEFORE shark diving seems …. well … perhaps a good idea … At least if one misses a step or a flip or a dive, one will have some serenity prepared …

Na’ama Y’karah,
Even this swimmer would consider shark diving off limits. 😉 More power to Ari. Hope she keeps all limbs intact.
Shalom,
Rochelle

Indeed! I’ve no inclination to do any such thing, either (even not off a prop from the ceiling)! 🙂

Shark diving! No wonder she’s meditating first.
