A Journey's Freedom

The freedom of the sun’s rays escaped from the clouds, penetrating deep into my bronzed skin. My manic thoughts are mercifully calmed by the sound of the water lapping on the hull and the wind rippling the sails. The smell of suntan lotion and sea spray ease my psyche and spirit.

 

This time, the journey was THE destination. My life’s harbors of ambition, possessions, and self-importance silently sink deep into the welcoming abyss of the sea. Life’s demands had taken their toll. Always a destination, always a purpose, always a goal.
 

At last, this was my freedom journey. With the setting sun and only the wind and current guiding my voyage, I ride on the wings of harmony and joy, finally settling into the peace of the present moment, finally without a destination.
