The impact races through my feet right up through my thighs…and I wish that I was lighter than this – somehow weightless enough that I flew above the ground…that gravity didn’t have so much pull on my mass. At first it all feels so laborious…hard to find motion and even harder to maintain momentum…but eventually even this subsides enough that I find that place where the whole effort at least seems neutral. Sometimes it seems that sweet spot could go on forever, it’s a fabulous state of being…but ultimately my legs start to ache or some distraction breaks the spell…and the immense gravity returns and reaches out, and pulls me back to the weight of this life. Still, it always feels good…and funnily enough I always feel lighter after…I always feel better.

About Lawrence Lewis
I do a number of things professionally...but most of all and the true purpose of what I do through "my work" is to provide for my family, be a good husband and great father, and try to make a difference as a world citizen...I guess it's not much more complicated than that 🙂
