Thoughts from biking and walking in Scotland July-August 2015

Part 10

There are people who prefer to live their whole lives,

without ever leaving home.

They travel the same roads,

back and forth,

throughout their lives.

The routine and predictability feels attractive and safe,

Life can feel like living cuddling under a well loved blanket.

 

As for me, give me a hill to climb,

a wind to ride into,

a rain to soak me through.

If you never ride up that hill,

you may never ever get to see the sea.

And the sea, that ever changing sea.

what deep and roiling secrets do you hold for me?
