I used to have sea legs, and not because I walked on water, but because I didn't feel whole on land. You taught me how to crawl, then walk, and now we're hand-in-hand on the boardwalk watching the sky turn a thousand colors, a cocktail of warmth and beauty before our eyes. I still can't do the five o'clock in the morning jogs, but my legs are getting stronger. I'll run with you, soon and forever.
I hope you enjoyed this short little piece! It sounds more dramatic than it is– I basically based it off of the fact I hate to run, and went from there. Trust me, I’ve tried to like it! It’s just not my exercise of choice. Please feel free to leave feedback and writing challenges in the comments. Stay safe and healthy out there.
