I was feeling lost with the season change.
My summer routine of swimming in the waters had come to an end.
And, so mindless scrolling filled in the gap
The more I scrolled the more I felt lost and disconnected.
So, into the woods I went to find my feet again.
Forging my path, I found myself at the edge of the escarpment.
The roaring winds welcomed me,
Throwing my body back out of sheer force.
Exuberance filled my being.
Just as I spent the summer moving with the water, I now can move with the wind.
I let my body respond to the gusts, dancing with the presence of air.
And, a raven joins in, swooping and soaring.
I yell in delight.
My voice unloading into the winds.
The raven and I both exploring our relationship with air.
An invisible, yet, palpable presence of wind for us to push against and initiate movement with.
I am swimming with the wind!
That stagnant lost energy leaving me as i come into the aliveness of this new season.
