The sun worshippers emerge

// June 1st, 2008 // No Comments » // Health, environment

It’s on rare, beautiful sunny winter days like this that the true followers emerge to pay homage. The ones that cannot do without the loving rays for too long without the winter depression setting in.

There’s not many of us. Just a smattering lying prostrate on the sand soaking in the feel-good warmth. The few that understand the bond between man and nature, the intricate relationship that exists to keep us grounded. We face the sun full on, keeping the line as direct as possible, shifting as the day progresses to maintain the optimum angle for maximum intake of the best natural drug known to man. Human flowers blossoming and drinking from the source.

Its not just about getting an all-over tan. Its not just about seeing the hotties parading, showing their wares, animals showing their feathers to attract a mate. It goes deeper than that. Its a realization that the sun is the true source. The reason we exist at all. The interplay between its energy and Mother Earth’s fertile womb brought forth our abundant playground.

And what do our celestial parents ask of us. Nothing but an appreciation of all that we are and all that we are a part of. Is it too much to ask?
