Question

Answer 2

I once rode out a Category 3 hurricane in an oceanfront wood frame house. The power was turned off, the phones too, and everyone else had left the island. It was coming on night. For about six or eight hours the wind shrieked like a woman being murdered in a horror movie and the house would suddenly lurch up and you never knew if that was it - the one big wave that was going to dislodge it and float it away. The ocean was on all sides of the house and into the darkness in every direction. I was an island at sea. It was deeply terrifying and I realized the full fury and force of nature and realized that the forces howling around me were many thousands of times strong enough to kill me in a second, like a bug against someone's windshield - they either would or they wouldn't - there was nothing I could do at that point but wait and see if I lived or died.

Bleh. That was mine -

Answer 3

I was a boy in the dunes of Lake Michigan. I was wandering and looking, avoiding bordom. Noticing a grouping of trees a ways off, I started running through the perfect air toward my sigth's love. I approached the trees, barefoot in the sand. Entering into the magical room of shade the grouping provided, I was taken by the smell of fresh water and new leaves (it was may). I climbed a tree about ten or fifteen feet and layed out on a large bough, as small boys can do. Lying there looking up through theleaves and across the filtered sunshine, listening to the waves and the birds and the wind. I was overcome with a beauty that I, for only a moment, understood to be what people dream about and search thier whole lives for. In my innocence I cried. It was wonderous and completing and soulfull. The feeling has stuck with me ever since, and I catch a glimpse of it here and there. I fell in love that day, and have been kept by it ever since. I left soon after I realized that I was beeing silly. I walked all the way back to where my sister and parents were with a little boy smile on my face.
Can you see it? Approaching sunset, facing west, a man who remembers how fragile and unbreakable nature is. This is my memory. It happened in a place called Silver Lake Sand Dunes on the west coast of Michigan. Is this what you wanted?

Answer 4

Emerging from a swim in the sea. Not the warm med but the north sea on the east coast of England. My body was completely numb and I felt a strange warm far away feeling as if I was watching everything from a distance. The waves had rolled me head over heels ten meters up the beach.

I remember seeing my children waving and a man asking me if I was OK, but I couldn't hear them until much later.

Answer 6

was in an avalanche, watched the aurora borealis burning up the night, was trapped under a foot of ice with no way out, was hiking in the mountains and it was snowing pine ash from the forest fires, watched a friend get sucked under in a back eddy from a water fall (he lived), caught a tropical iguana out of a northern mountain river with our fishing rod, turned around a corner on the way to the outhouse to see this big shaggy ugly dog looking at me… it was a bear... we had miraculous cross species communication going on

but all this is mundane in comparison to the strangest natural mystery LOVE

Answer 7

had a water birth. no medical intervention at all. just as nature intended. the baby doesnt need manually turning once the head crowns to allow the shoulders out, it does it naturally in water. i believe water birth is the most natural way to give birth.
