Today I got to sit by my true love, water. The beach is my favorite place to be. Many fear the ocean and its oblivion it obtains, but I don’t mind it at all. I love the unknown of the ocean you never know how it feels that day or how it will act. But the ocean will always be in motion and I will always dance in the waves. I dance with the ocean, within the waves as they pull me in, spin me around and push me away. Sweeping me off my feet to only gracefully plant me back down. Today I am not at the ocean but at my favorite pond the pavillion. I grew up playing with the Pavillion. In the summer I would fish there, go kayaking and maybe push a friend in or two. Now I just sit and watch it. It’s December and the friends I onced used to play with and push into the pavillion have grown up and moved away. I sit here looking at the pond realizing how asleep it looks. There’s now sparkles reflecting the sun, now fish creating ripples as they come up to the surface to say hello. Just a dark blue, still pond. I sit here on the bridge staring out onto the frozen pond. Watching the water flow over rocks and disappearing under the hard icy mask the pond is currently wearing. It is winter now so the water is not dancing anymore. But even when it is dark blue and still I continue to find it beautiful. I am at peace here, the still water calms my thoughts from crashing in my mind like how a wave meets the beaches shore. But I know even though the water may be still in the winter it will always dance with me again in the summer.
