I never thought that I would write in a Blog. I have been on Facebook for almost six years, and tend to be on that more than I would like to admit. Honestly, I am not that comfortable with my grammar, or my spelling to put myself out here this much. However, I am giving it a go. I am giving this a whole hearted chance. In my blogs throughout this semester, I am going to write about nature, and how it is applying itself to my life.
I am attending a very fascinating class at Western Michigan University called Our Place in Nature. I have been asked to blog about myself and nature. So Here I go...Lately, I have been riding my bike everywhere I go. It has been difficult giving up the luxury of sitting in a car, and being sheltered from the rain. However, I have actually began to enjoy the feel of the rain on my face, or the wind at my back. I have been enjoying the small success stories of making it up hills, and than enjoying the feel of going back down them. It is almost as if I am getting a part of my childhood back that I forgot about. By the age of 12 years old I quit riding a bike, because I had flown over the handle bars on my Huffy one too many times, and the last time was in front of a cute boy. Now in my mid twenties I have regained the ability to get on my bike and ride, without the fear of embarrassing myself. I only live once, and I cannot spend it in fear of embarrassing myself.
