There is always the option of bracing myself against the strongest winds or taking cover in a nearby forest of the mind... or I can stand, unabashed, in the violent onslaught and feel the great winds invigorate, empowering me.
I choose life.
With its questions, its doubts, it temptations and longings... I choose a passionate life.
Do you?

Oh I do too. Or I try most days.
I need to hold on against the gale at times...but hold as best I can-- I will.
Thanks for another boost of courage to brace and Embrace!!
Goodmorning Allison ;)

It's hard at times to hold on, but I do. If I didn't I would blow away.
A thought provoking post! Carla
Because of who (or is that whom?) I'm married to, I really have no choice... but yes, I do. It's the only way to be.
Awesome question, photographs and prose. Thank you dear! :)
Yeah! I choose life too, "with its questions, its doubts, it temptations and longings... I choose a passionate life", with much, much love and friendship!
Thank you to be here, dear!
Have a great 2011 with yours! You're a lovely woman!
Kisses and warm hugs from Brasil.
Yes I do choose a passionate life. After all, what is the alternative? Stunning photos!!!
I prefer to hold on to the trees in the forest. I borrow their strength to bolster mine.
Lovely words with a charm to them. I try anything I have never tried before, hoping to never miss a beat in life.
with respect to the picture-don't they feel cold?:)
Beautiful thoughts and photographs Allison
