high.............

tonight i am high.........................high on life.

so high that i could have ridden to toronto and back had it not been so cold. by the time i rode back to the house at 10.30pm it was getting to late for a mad ride.

winter is fast approaching and memories of last year`s lack of snow have my fingers crossed.........but i`m not so niave as to think we`ll get a repeat, gobal warming or not.

the highs have to be embraced as brief peaks, with the clear and certain knowledge that we must descend to remain human. we must descend to remember the process of rising and falling. if all we did was sit on the peak.........then we would have nothing to compare it too.

so tonight i will revel in being like a god. high up........for tomorrow i will be merely mortal once again.
