Primordial

This morning as I ran in Liberty Park through light and half-light, light and half-light while shadows slanted through the pines, I felt like there was something almost primordial about the experience--running barefoot at dawn through trees and so forth.  And I thought it would have been cool to be something pre-historic like a druid.

Except, of course, for the part where you were running because woolly mammoths wanted to eat you.

Yeah, I'm guessing not too many prehistoric folks ran just for the "fun" or exercise of it. Hey, maybe they were on to something!

More importantly, though, what beautiful writing, Ann! Maybe you should write for a living.

Ha Ha love it. We so need to go swimming sometime and watch the light slant through the water.
