A simple conversation, similar to one that may occur with a friend while in a hot tub under the stars in a green tree-covered forest, while tossing the baseball back and forth, while roasting marshmallows by the fire, while on shift at work when it is really slow, while drawing, while drinking a beer after that long day of work, and any time you can step back for a second to be able to enjoy right now.

A pond of conversation is presented to softly swim in to build connection, allow for appreciation and support of one another, to enjoy a new experience, and see the humanity in all of us.
