It is sea glass collection day, I can feel it in my bones... Even if no one else can feel it. I can so envision the sea glass I will find, and the shells and stones... Thoughts are racing in my mind!
I get like this, like a kid getting ready to go to the candy store. I love the anticipation of the Lake, because it never ceases to exceed my expectations. There is never a disappointment, never a dull moment, yet always a calmness, even if the water is rough. The feel of the water driven breeze, the sounds of the waves hitting shore, even on the calmest days... ahhh....
Even when others are there, in my mind they disappear or become small compared to the vastness of Lake Ontario. Is it the ocean? No, but my mind sees no difference. My mind sees the large body of water that I cannot see the other side. It moves, it's ebbs, it flows. It's ever changing, never the exact same twice. I might see things I have seen before, but they are different and I will never see them again.
Each time I go it is special, I could go every day and it would still be embedded in my mind as a memory that will never be erased, not by time, not by overflow.
The Lake has become my second greatest love. I don't know how, I don't ask why. I just know, that when I cease to be able to go I am sure a large part of me will die.All My Love~
