“For some, a figure floating face down in water may provoke anxiety; for others, it conveys tranquility. Water covers about 71 percent of the Earth’s surface. Floating is a parable for life. Water is where we find balance and the expression of life as a series of buoyant experiences.” —Margaret O’Brien-Nelson
