“The wind shows us how close to the edge we are.” Joan Didion
Blown Away Today I noticed the wind which came whipping at my door and pushing against my windows, I saw it sway the trees and throw waves against the sand, I want to be enveloped in that wind, to be pushed and thrown to new places and experiences like autumn leaves lifted from a path, taken beyond to the unexpected.

I LOVE this! I could actually feel myself being pushed by the wind.

In many ways we are those leaves blown away in a way meant for us. I wish it were only the wind that blows me away.
