This weekend I went for a run. Afterward I jumped in a river with my clothes on. And floating around the river at dusk, my sweat becoming part of the water, I wished I could remove all my clothes and lay on the wharf at my leisure, or swim a little farther out, or walk naked into a house for a bottle of wine and perhaps some chips or fruit.
It just reinforced my philosophy that I don’t need and have never wanted designer handbags or clothes, fancy cars, or costly jewels. But I would like some land. And I would like some freedom. It’s what I work so hard for.
One Day...
