Gray overcast skies. damp chilled air. Succumb to the coolness, but layers make cozy inside. Briskness touches my face with the turn of my bar presents me toward another direction, hence invigorating me with renewed longing: where am i going? From whence did this journey begin? Am I alive, for yes the chilled air brings me back to my reality but my mind still lingers into a web of drizzled perceptions from the constant downpour of thoughts that flood through my meager mind. Is this the day? No my dilemma, my journey has not yet come to the point that i had thought i would be. I spin my legs in sweet rhythm, keeping up the for tense of exercise, but yet wallow in the desire to be out and lose myself in my thoughts and feed my passion that i have come to love all so well. Is it an addiction? Some may beg to differ, some may think so. I think this journey that I take myself on is just an extension of my self and this world, the longing /desire that feeds the frenzy takes me from one point to another, but yet the scenery, the thoughts, the reclusiveness of this journey brings me to another realm. This realm is one of my escapes from the reality of the world, that drives us and directs us in a way we know not and sometimes understand not all so well. this is one time were i can reprieve and delay the inevitability of life, of the world, and the circumstances that dictate us. this is my time, if there is such a thing , to escape, to dream, to punish, to live, to breath, to pedal, to ride--is all i desire!!
Hope you are out there as well as I . Stop complaining and start living. go out and ride. I could take a camera and take some pictures, but the memories in my mind are much more vivid and produce much more involvement into the very being in which i am, in which I strive to be, and in full course who others perceive me as. We are, I am , you are all the same- friends, coworkers, parents, loved ones, acquaintances, bike riders. Stop your waiting and get out there and enjoy the day! Have a good one Everyone. HUp it up.
