Gerry LopezThe Fire Inside (by Gerry Lopez)

Surfing astonishes me still.  Even after almost 50 years of steady pursuit I find my inner fire for the experience, though cooled on occasion, still can be stoked up into a blaze that all but consumes my attention toward everything else in my life.  For those who don’t surf, this somewhat juvenile passion is difficult to understand.  But for those who do, this internal heater room fuels that private smile and keeps us coming back for just that one more wave time and time again.
