Bend is so damn beautiful! Seriously. We discover something that is breathtaking with every step we take on this land by the river.

The river…

Oh my God! I had no idea how pulled I have always been to the trickle of the rapids until I saw it again. Something inside me screamed, “FUCKING FINALLY!”

I guess my body remembers something that my brain pretty much forgot! The water heals. It washes. It cleans. It grabs the muck and pushes it forward towards that inevitable waterfall that is so pretty, but altogether disastrous. It breaks the muck apart into pieces and scatters it so that it has to regenerate into something new, something whole again.

And I regenerate into something new… something whole again. Right here, by the river. 😉
