One With The Wind

As I sit and watch the wind blow, I can't help but remember when the boys were little. Alex loved the wind he would run outside and hold his arms up and laugh. I think he thought he would fly. We gave him and Indian name "One with the Wind". He stills rolls down the window and lets the wind hit him when we are driving. The other boys didn't enjoy the wind as much, Chris would hide from it and Jordan didn't like how it felt going up his nose.
I like to think of wind as a bit of a cleanser, it can blow away all the things you don't need anymore. Like that cardboard box you left in the back yard, or your worries. Maybe that is why Alex likes the wind, it carries his worries away. You can make any day a windy day, go for a drive, ride your bike, or in my case my horse. I ride Penny and we are free the only sound is the wind in my ear.
I know we all get so carried away by the stress of life, sometimes we need to take advice from our kids. They are pure, gentle and unblemished. I have learned alot about life from them, the things we forget as we grow old. I think I might go outside and hold my arms up and let the wind carry my worries away! You should try it too.Take a moment today and act like a child, I promise you will feel better! Ok, I'm off to go embrace the wind. Have a great day!
