:::TRIGGER WARNING:::
I like to take back roads out to the most remote place I can find. Sometimes at night to see if I can find a place with no light so I can see the stars. When I get there, with no one around, I take all of my clothes off and lie down on the ground. Feeling the still warm earth below, and seeing the vast openness above, I come to know that though there is reality that is hard and firm behind me, the vast universe of potential is out in front.
Why nude? I don't know. Maybe it's to do with not being bound or restricted.
I get out and away alone, where the pressures of life are gone for a few hours. I'm only responsible for myself, answering to no one. I "bottle" moments like that for later consumption when I need a "time out". Close my eyes, see those stars, feel the earth...
