a single splash.

i no more want to ride in the train.
i want to be alongside the train.
standing on the tracks.
accepting the wind that will whip through and splash over my entire self.
so powerful, it will take my breath away.
in one second.
i will be gasping for the air i so wanted to receive.
and then smile.
that moment.
as it passes.
such motion, intensity--me, right beside it.

i no more want to fly in the plane.
i want to fly myself.
soaring through the clouds.
accepting the experience that i so miss here on the ground.
i want the air to receive me, as i receive it.

i no more want to ride on the boat on top of the waves so crashing.
i want to be in the water, between the waves so crashing.
crashing on me.
sweeping through me, around me then in me.
temperature will no longer be an issue.
movement will swift unless moved myself.
i no longer can wait on myself.

i want all experiences to wash over me.

Wow. Love this. Okay -- the train image is slightly terrifying...but to fly and swim through the crashing waters with the assurance of a being created to navigate them. Wonderful imagery.
