Wednesday approaches stealthily
under the cover of Monday’s and Tuesday’s vapor trail; the week’s start
distracting and consuming energy like a hungry high performance engine crazing
octane. I saw Wednesday coming from two days ago even though its two cohorts
attempted to keep me occupied and blanketed in heavy fog.
Here we are at the crest of the
week, watching the wave forming a curl. Tanned
and silky smooth in suggestive two-piece coral colored bathing suit caressing
curvy hips, low cut cups cuddling perky breasts that are pressed into the
eight-foot combination of wood and acrylic waxed and smooth, arms paddling to
encourage the board to the edge of the crescendo of exhilaration.
The thrill of catching the big
kahuna, the ultimate ride we force ourselves into a crouch as the tip of the
board extends beyond the edge of the building wave of energy. Feeling the
funnel of saline infused H2O surrounding us we realize the potential
to ride or wipe out equally balanced, pumping adrenaline at break neck speed.
As the fins bite the water we cut
precipitously through the curl, green-blue ocean reminds us to stay low and
centered. The ride seems timeless and endless.
Just as it feels like the canopy
will collapse the curl opens and we emerge from the crouch, the rush of the
tide slows and our speed decreases as we approach the beach.
Exhaling we smile, brushing back
soaked hair as electricity courses through us, another accomplishment solidly
in the bank of memories.
I’m not a surfer, don’t have the
coordination, but I thought the analogy would be fitting at least this one
time. If your heart rate climbed even one beat above sedentary then the
delivery was worth the effort.
Now it’s up to you, grab your
favorite mode of transportation, settle in and enjoy the ride. Let your mind wander and your pulse race.
Life is meant to be lived girlfriend.
What’s holding you back?
Nobody can make you do what you
don’t want to do. But I can coax and
cajole and maybe I’ll strike that nerve and your body will swing into motion. The rest is either history or a lost
opportunity! What say you girlfriend?
Love and hugs, Nikki DiCaro
