Splash -- between the lines, over the years

D, whom I have always held in high regard, once advised me: "To understand Splash, consider its opposite". What's the antithesis of Splash? I am still wondering. Constipation, maybe.


In a little more than three years, I have come to see Splash as more than getting active with water. To be Splash means more than making waves. As we strived to make Splash great, I began to see a deeper level emerge. 


WILL and FORCE. MOMENTUM and IMPACT. 


These qualities drive us as individuals. Harnessed COLLECTIVELY, they distinguish us as a team. 


Hopefully, in a not-too-distant future, we turn into a phenomenon. This could be a good way to make those who put their trust in us, happy. (I do wish to help D collect more happy specimens; he studies happiness).


So, Splash is not just about water and fun. Splash is the sum total of the actions and emotions surrounding what we can do for one another.


Now, how's that for the third working day in 2009?


Happy New Year.
