A LARGER LIFE
by Michael D. Warden
I came this morning to the sea, felt the wildness playing there, the howl of wind nipping at the sand, the froth of surf prancing at the cool line of the land, and, in the distance, mountains high and green as emeralds, beckoning me to a larger life. Can you hear it? How the world is always whispering, calling you to wake! You must not lose your life in sleepy stories that are too small for you to breathe in. Open your eyes! It is only when you come to the edge of everything you think you are that you finally see: There is no such thing as an ordinary life. The very fabric of the universe is made of possibility. Step in. Disappear. To become the Ocean, let go your need to be the drop.
