no boundaries

Sometimes driving down long country roads get to me. I get emotional. I become a part of something so much bigger than myself. A connection is discovered...reminded. There is no longer a line between me and the earth. I become one with it. I feel so small and yet so big at the same time. It's a high. It's overwhelming. It makes me cry. It makes me laugh. The earth and I become a mechanism, two parts acting in unison. Giving and taking. There is no longer a division between subject and object. The earth and I are no longer self and other, but instead, a single being. It's exhilarating to be a part of something so big. Sometimes it takes solitude, vacant land, and a good song to remind me of this phenomenon. The earth and I are more alike than unlike each other. It's a relationship. It's a confounding rush.
