Have you ever listened to the wind?
See the grey sky outside.
Put on a warm sweater and your favorite wool socks.
Find the biggest, emptiest field you can.
Close your eyes.
Hear the wind as it whispers in your ear.
Feel it caress your skin.
Open your eyes to see it dry them.
Listen to it trickle like a stream.
Sense it rage like a bull.
It pushes and pulls as it surrounds you.
Watch it making the trees dance and the grass sway.
Stick out your tongue and taste it.
The wind shall carry forth forever, with or without you.
So don't allow it to escape your attention.
Be one with the wind.
