katie told me that spinning around in circles made her feel alive.
all i felt was dizzy.
i looked up at the coral hues of orange... persimmon... as i spiralled around the field that day. still, the dizzying blur of color and the autumn air in my lungs were intoxicating.
"you should probably stop, now."
i had been warned.
maybe that's why all i felt was dizzy when i finally did stop.
i'd taken it to extremes, again.
seems to be a re-occurring theme in my life:
Take it to the Limit.
i've been dangling over the edge, before....pondering if the trip down would even be that bad in the first place.
i ended up being lifted to safety, without giving consent. thank you to each of you who decided i was worth going over that ledge for. and, thank you for bringing me back.
now, taking it to the limit, has a different meaning. no longer do i flirt with disaster, the way i used to. at least, not purposely. but, now...it seems the dizzying pace of my life is such that even if i did stop...all i would feel is dizzy and disillusioned.
turning in circles isn't for me.
i'm more of a zig-zag girl, myself, anyway.
;) until next time,
you zig-and i'll zag-and katie....well, katie's gonna spin.
much much love-
