Being a Sensualist

Love squishing mud between your toes and walking barefoot with the thrill of possibly (accidentally) squishing a creepy bug. 

Roll down a steep grassy hill and be itchy afterward. Even better - if you get poison ivy, go ahead and scratch it. (If you are highly sensitive to it like I am, you know what I mean!)

Wake up.

Step outside.

Breathe deeply.

Smile and explode with ecstasy.

However, like the wind, we can see the effects of what love does. It is an energy that can lifts the mundane to a deeper level of joy. 

Like the wind, love makes us sway. It can be turbulent and relentless. Sometimes its strength knocks us over and rips us apart.  

Like the wind, love moves. It’s movement is unseen but felt.  

When we take shelter, we feel the potent stillness that pulses...
