Look Mom...No Hands!!!

[riding a bicycle up the street] "People always say you should be yourself ~ like yourself is this definite thing ~ like a toaster, or something. Like you can know what it is, even. But every so often, I’ll have like…a moment, where being myself, and my life right where I am is, like, enough." [she releases the handlebars and rides up the street, no hands] ~ My So Called Life (turn off the music below to enjoy the videos below)
Ever have one of those days when you just need to let go and throw your hands up in the air while you are on the crazy ride called life??? It's like the bicycle scene in City of Angels, where Meg Ryan is riding her bike.....wind at her face...free, almost flying.....without a care, at peace...her mind flooded with memories and moments....(yes, I know that there is a tragic ending to it) but was it really?? I would rather have had
One breath of her hair,
One kiss from her mouth,
One touch of her hand,
Than eternity without it.
One!

So for today....throw your hands up in the air, feel the wind and embrace the moment of your life right where you are.... so that someone one day will say "when they ask me what was the best part was....I will tell them it was you. "
