Ride like the Wind

Blogging Metro Vancouver…

It was supposed to be a default Vancouver day of rain…but the wind came alive…tree branches littered the roads…and then the wind was gone…never seen but its manifestation evident in its pine scented footsteps…

The sky blue the sun a spotlight on life…and the city came alive!

A city of smiles…the magnificent white capped mountains stood as sentinels framing the horizon to the north…the panorama of glistening English Bay to the west…beautiful Boundary Bay to our American south shone gloriously…Mt Baker our ever present American friend towered majestically to the south east…the jagged teeth of the Coastal Mountains stabbed heavenward along the eastern horizon..

The downtown core sparkled as light played upon towers of steel and glass…reflecting the joy of the people and the effervescent beauty of British Columbia…

Bald eagles soared in the window we call sky…herons moved like dancers upon the stage of nature…

Today I saw it all…and it was iridescently shocking to the soul…today I am ALIVE and I…

Ride like the Wind…

How do you feel alive?

Last night I was at a baptism service where eight young people gave their testimonies before being dunked. Several of them had been my students at one time or another. It really made me feel alive!
