alive

So instead of spending money for a trip that will be a memory if things poorly remembered, save your money and accompany me on this trip.
We can share a sleeping bag under a starry night and trade stories while our breathe materializes in the cool air. I can give you the regalia of the constellations and tell you of how Orion received his belt, or simply point out the North Star. We can sit next to a fire so mountainous that rising embers threaten the trees which hang above. We can stare out over hundreds of miles of Gods Country high above the the birds flying below. We can traverse the peaks of our Earth and walk slowly with the clouds. And we can get rained on like you've never been rained on before, dance with the lightning as it is created around us. And we can take time to realize that we are alive.
Alive, we are.
We are, alive.
