Seaside Reverie.......A Salt Spray Moment........

Salt spray collects on the open skin causing rivulets of water to cascade downwards, rushing forth to an unknown destiny, caught in the rush of gravity, filled with the adrenalin euphoria of a void, unthinking and perpetuating a cycle, while the lone figure remains motionless, caught in a moment of reverie, as the mists roll in from the sea, enveloping and caressing each part of the body of this sentient being of immobility, transfixed and unwavering in the onslaught of circumstances and the prevailing relevance of it's very existence, which was not always the case.

This being contemplates all the crossroads and the dead ends it has incurred, the joyous times, the laughs, the tears, the inevitable good byes, as the energy of the physical transmutes itself once again, the feelings of inadequacy, the feelings of physical strength, the feelings of walking on air, the invincibility of youth and the sudden lack of fear as the eyes embraced the details of nothingness in the mist and the being began to sob and add to the rivulets of the salt spray with the tears that gently flowed out of the ducts and caused a sensation, unlike it had ever felt in the past.

The tears intermingled and flowed and there was finally that sense of peace at last, and, as the tears were not of anger, not of sadness, but of joy and completeness, a knowingness in the moment of standing alone, a moment in the greater scheme of things, a moment where all that truly mattered was the simplicity of the moment, that was the moment , that the mists cleared and the being was cocooned in the glorious rays and heat of the sunshine and suddenly the feet started to move, one step after the other.

The being realised that this life journey had many beginnings and many endings and as it picked up the pace, a new journey commenced with greater purpose and the knowledge that the intention was half of the battle.

It was now that it needed to show courage and move forward, onwards, outwards and to infinity, if that is what it takes.
