I'd like to dedicate this article to a friend. She needs some strength now, and I'd like to share my advice in one word. Forgiveness.
Just finished my midnight skate ...again at 1:20 am LOL And yes that toad was still there waiting on a bug. The ground still rumbled under my wheels and the night, despite the air being thick... felt perfect.
I'm a glutton for punishment I suppose. I skated all day it seems. Only to skate again when I get home. Lately I have more energy than I know what to do with. I had a bowl of cereal this morning with fresh raspberries. For lunch on the road I had a chilled salad and half a quart of concord grape juice with a banana. For dinner, two steaks and ice-water and another banana. LOL
But I heard a song tonight I have not heard in years. Each word seemed to fit. So I have forgone writing a book entry tonight for something a bit poignant. I really liked this song long ago, it really seemed rewarding and refreshing tonight. I could wrote every word it seemed so fitting in it's spirit. I'm in a fantastic place in my life now. The moments I'm pensive are meaningful and optimistic, no longer a road to melancholy. Tonight's skate felt great. Great song... To my friend that could use some support, I hope these lyrics can help you too. :)
Looking out of the window
Can't believe what I see
Where was all this beauty when I loved you
From now on this is my world
Yes we lost but I don't hurt any more
I knew there must be more to life than this
Now is the time for me
I'm grateful you set me free
Baby one ... more »
