Face Off: “Water, Fire, Air and Earth”
I write this post from a new space today: The Beach. I grew up on the beach (lived the first half of my life in South Florida) and am a water-baby through and through… but between the expense of travel, the pandemic, and the many surgeries in the last couple of years, I feel like I have barely seen water.
(Let’s pretend I don’t live on a lake and see lake water every day, shall we?)
Water is my happy-element. If I see it out my window, I wake up earlier, breathe better, stay calmer. Perhaps it IS my upbringing, but I will always consider myself a “water person” and a “warmth person”.
My partner, on the other hand, is a snow and ice sort of guy, and would choose mountains over sand any day of the week. We have lived in the mountains together and I love it too, but I can only travel so far north before my landlock anxiety sets in.
Question: What element do you connect with most? Water, fire, air, earth?
If you could choose between snow and mountains, or sand and sun, which would you choose?
PS: I feel like most CFers love salty air and sun (perhaps because we were once recommended it for treatment), so I won’t be surprised if we all choose that option!
