Puddle Jumping
November 4, 2009
If you’re an avid walker, that’s someone who loves to walk year round through the seasons, you’re probably familiar with puddle jumping. I’m a puddle jumper myself and proud of it! At first, I just thought I liked water a lot, but I have this compulsive need to propel my feet into still (relatively clean) pools of water.
Jumping with free abandon into a puddle, as the water splashes whimsically through the air, getting you and everything (and everyone) around you drenched — is the stuff that life is made of. I never feel so free as the moment I leap into the air and come landing into a muddy puddle of water. I often list “jumping in puddles” or “puddle jumping” as one of my hobbies because I enjoy it that much. It’s a moment that pulls you back into your childhood, total abandon of inhibitions and it’s simply fun!
The next time you’re out their walking in the rain, try it — you just might like it!
