Breathe a breath into your belly.
Way down deep into your soul.
Reach the resistance.
Breathe into it an let it go.
Be easy. Be the flow.

Take this time on a rainy day to breathe deep.

Who doesn't love jumping in the puddles. Rain landing on your face. Running to your car feeling the excitement of running in the rain.

The summer before I started college (feels like yesterday but.... isn't. #sighgettingold) I was fortunate to be a part of a group called deCycles. We rode from Bloomington, IN to Atlantic City, NJ. Lets just say that trip was a MAJOR turning point in my life. As many other participants in the wonderful group/organization can attest. Life changes while on a bike.
One of my most favorite memories from that trip was riding my first 100 mile day. In the rain. On flat ground. My group had several of my favorite people from that trip in it. People who were alive in their being. Singing, laughing, enjoying the energy that takes over and gets you down the rode. We were light and pure in the moment.
I thought that 100 miles would be such a hard day and... when it was over I could have ridden much more. That is when I knew... I had so much more in me and all it took was one more pedal. One more song to sing... to reach the next break.

That lesson has carried me, been my companion... and a catalyst to reaching and stretching into more.

Cheers to a rainy day. Someone out there is finding their moment right now. Maybe its you. Soak in those good moments around you. Breathe it in.
