while thinking of nature 85 percent of my day already--i dug this up on my computer. the followed writing of thought is one i did just this time, last year.
do you think that if I planted my feet into the ground amongst the trees that stand brave and tall I could become one with nature and into that type of family and world?
If I closed my eyes and focused and spread my weak pale arms to the sides, I could become something so amazing?
Do you think that I could experience differently all four seasons in such an original way of wonder and beauty such as they do?
Do you think that if I could concentrate hard enough and cry every day, month or even year I could turn into rain?
Do you think that if i should dance and twirl my way into complete dizziness I could become one with the wind?
Do you think that if I painted my skin a more neon yellow, dressed myself in all yellow clothes and shoes, bleached my hair white to stand in a ray of sunshine like a lone reed, the sun would zap me up to its blindness and guide like light?
Do you think that I could force myself to sit in the coldest of lockers and freeze myself into ice that I would then enter into a phase that possibly only a selected few could even think of?
Do you think that I would then finally be able to shed the light into darkness, the leaves into bare nothingness, the ice into water and then rain into mud?
To shed something as natural as the seasons can, in a healthy way instead of anger, hurt, frustration and pain?
But possibly even as twisted as all of this may be, to shed the emotions we do is our healthy way as humans to process and live.
However, I want to be one with nature, so maybe--just maybe--I could turn into rain, wind, ice, sunshine and even the trees.
The world may never know.
But I would like to think so.

Wow. Love that...I would turn into the sea. Sometimes went I'm floating on the water I imagine becoming one with it. But it can be so terrifying rough at times - then smooth as glass. That was a beautiful piece, Katie
ah, the sea! that would be awesome. i love to float out there and let the current drift me away. terrifying, yes! --i think every one of them could be pretty terrifying. :) so sorry about your mia child post. but so glad you have him back!
