Experience, Lindsey Ceniviva

This past weekend I experienced an amazing connection with nature. Although I was not completely subdued out in the woods, I felt the presence of the wild within me. This past weekend I went ice skating with my cheerleading squad and while circling around in the uncomfortable skates, my sight became hooked upon a group of trees in the distance. Despite the lights and crowds and noise, a personal and silent feeling came over me. I felt as though I was alone on the rink and that I was just floating above the thick ice. I have an overwhelming love for Christmas spirit and the Holidays and this feeling just boosted that even more. The trees I had been fixed upon took my breath away and made me feel the love that nature provides during our holiday seasons. It is the recognition of life and natural beauty that these gorgeous trees instill. Even though this experience only lasted a few moments, it was something that I can reflect on and remember throughout the holiday seasons to come.
