MANIA’S AFFECT ON ME
The ocean is my home.
The bigger the waves are.
The more exhilarated I become.
I am alive and stronger than ever.
I am free from the darkness.
I am alive and well.
My only fear is that this moment won’t last forever.
Therefore, I push further and further.
I am free, and I am me.
~Wendy Taylor ~
An example of Mania I always like to give is how I feel in the ocean. Huge waves crashing over me. I really have no fear, and the power of the ocean did not scare me. As powerful as the sea is I feel incredibly free and alive. Never giving a thought to my safety.
