I am Home
July 12, 2020
I feel the waves dancing across my feet
I walk deeper and breathe in the salty air
The water welcomes me as its daughter
And I am home
I dive in and feel the rush of cool water against my skin
My legs transform into my beautiful tail
How can I describe how the water completes me
A piece of me always feels like its missing when I am not home
I spin and twirl as the water rushes over me
I swim deeper out going through the reef
Colors light up the ocean as I’m met with its other inhabitants
The wild welcomes me and I am free once again to truly be myself
I explore the cave that holds hidden gems and treasures long forgotten
There is a danger within my home
A beauty
It is wild
Unpredictable
An ordered chaos and I would have it no other way
There is so much of my home to explore
I’m never bored
My curiosity is always growing
As I learn new places in which to adventure
Here there is always more to learn
When the night comes the magic of my world continues
The way the moon shines off the water
Magically pulling the waves
Commanding their flow
The moon pulls me in the same way
It has the most magical effect on me
As I feel I am one with the moon and the sea
When I am not in my home
The water calls me like I am lost
And in truth I am
I am lost
Chaotic
Beneath the calm surface I present
And as the with the waves
I can be strong and unyielding
Yet would gently guide a lost soul to a safe harbor
Unpredictable and chaotic
Beautiful and dangerous
Wild
Mysterious
Free
I can hear its calling
Can you hear it
It calls to me now
And I can not say no
Also I do not want to
So as I enter the waves
I am enveloped in the ocean’s embrace
Finally complete with no more longing
I am Home

I am loving The Adventure Shop! Fiction and fantasy is such a diverse genre, but many times, stories seem to follow similar paths. It can be difficult to find and to write something truly unique, but that is precisely what you have created with The Adventure Shop! Your characters are so relatable, and there are so many great details and descriptions woven throughout each post. I haven’t decided yet which character is my favorite, but once I do, they will certainly hold a spot tied with Greeney ☺️ I can’t wait for your next post!

“One more time.” The way you spoke about that phrase reminded me of Hebrews 12:1-2.
I’m so thankful for the example you are setting.

I admire your willing vulnerability and how you have place fear into the open, showing it to be a sad little creature that can only torment when unacknowledged.
I have not overcome fear of creating in a while, might be time to start seeing as I have a role model.

I think putting yourself out there is one of the most terrifying things you can do, but it can be so rewarding! So I try to not think of the negative “what if’s” but rather the positive ones, you’ve got this!
