What do you see in this picture?

What do you see in this picture?
Setting sun... tranquil waters... peace... relaxation... HOLIDAYS!
So many thoughts go through my mind... but mostly peace! And the enjoyable time when I took this picture.  Which was last night!  It is our first day of summer holidays.  After supper we took the kayaks out.  Just was too hot during the day.  35* on the water just didn’t seem like a great idea.  But as evening approached we knew it was now or another day.  (Never say never!!!) 
We didn’t paddle too far.  Just up to the point.  I can get internet reception on my iphone there.  Just so important to check my emails!  Lol!  Yes even on holidays!
Still calm so we continued on our paddle.  The skies were giving a beautiful display.  ‘Red sky at night sailors delight...’ The clouds were moving slowly across the sky.  Then the winds picked up.  The clouds turned dark. Still interesting to watch... if we weren’t in the kayaks... so paddling quickly – not my specialty! We made it back to the cottage.
So much like life!  Everything seems calm on the surface but you never know what is brewing underneath.  How can you control it?  What can you do to make the best of it? 
The twists and turns of life present obstacles and challenges.  How you deal with them and how you change them to your advantage is up to you.
I had a great ab workout last night.  Started out just a simple work out but with the increased challenge to get home before the weather completely changed which increase the workout to a great ab workout.  Still feeling it!!!  But that is good. 
Looking back at the picture again... see anything else?  Safety – life jacket, and of course the water bottle.  Never leave home without it!
