Good Morning Web Traveller!
There is something to be said over things that each of us do for ourselves. I have had this on off relationship with a bicycle over the years, but thinking back to my previous post, about returning to my roots, getting a bicycle when I was younger meant a “source” of freedom. I mean obviously I couldn’t go far from the house, but slowly but surely like with many things in life, you start to spread your wings.. Boy, I’ll tell you now, if it was known where I went in my younger days with it, I’m sure more than a few choice words would have been sent. So this has me thinking, a dear friend (you will know who you are when you read this) in one of our recent conversations we were talking about “nurture vs nature.” To be honest for me “nurturing” was probably the most for me up until the “sex” talk, and then it seemed to taper off “some.”. Entering the teenage years, of course there’s nothing like being hormonal, trying to figure out what all this added newness to the body adds.
I mean at some point everyone will go through this themselves and it’s already difficult enough figuring out what you are and who you are. I feel for those who jsut wanna be themselves and honestly don’t feel like they can. In time YOU WILL be able to. It takes time. Like I said earlier, the bicycle for me was something I have had this love hate relationship with. I love it because you have control over it does, however as i have gotten older, the undercarriage (meaning the seat) doesn’t like what’s all going on there. So that means, have a take a few more breaks, which is probably good anyway, but there are times with the music pumping my legs match the rhythms of the beat. Did you ever have that happen?
After I moved away, for the longest time I didn’t have one, it’s been within the past 10 years that I have had the one in the pictures. I got it after my ex decided to get a new life, which i get it. I did that at one point, I was moving and I didn’t think much about it. It’s the way that it was done that I disagree with, however I wish no ill will, live your life and i hope it all works out as best for you as it can be. I’m just not interested in hearing about it. After that happened I took all the hurt, pain, negative feelings and or what have you and poured that into myself, again returning to my “roots” The bicycle is something I considered a “root” for me because I was able to move out of the situation being a kid, and breaking free and find some solace and peace. Did you ever feel like there is so much going on around you and you need to just not deal with it right then and there? Happens a lot actually.
So now WebTraveller that’s what I have to say for today. The sun is shining and it is a beautiful day. It might not seem that way for some of you, and my wish is that it will shine through at some point. Here’s a few more pictures to brighten up your day and the post.
Have a safe and blessed day everyone. I’ll be back soon there is another “roots” item i may bring back that was something that was more than an escape, it was like a church to me.
In essence I have decided to “reconstruct” myself bringing back “me” that I am familiar with. And man it feels good. Everything is day by day sometimes but there is a lot to cherish in life. Thank you for reading, feel free to comment, if you know me personally and wanna comment outside of the web that’s fine to. Learning more healthy barriers is a good thing.
Until next time …
