So I stood at the Arctic ocean near the top of the world. As I reached down and my finger tips touched the icy cold waters I felt such a sensation. Was it the spiritual part of me knowing that I was touching the waters that make up the Great Circle of Waters that find their way to the ocean, to the Great Lakes, and the little river by where I live. Or was it the feeling that I was 5,000 miles away from my ex-wife in a place she would never find me.
