Today I dropped in for the first time

I was at the ramp holding up my board, preparing but not stomping down or stepping down. I was getting more and more scared, waiting for it to be empty. I wasn't scared of falling; I was scared of the movement where you press it. It is like when your stomach drops on a roller coaster, except you're in control. I love roller coasters, but I didn't want to let go. I wasn't scared of injury, because I knew I could do it and I knew I'd be fine. I was scared of giving myself to gravity.I waited for it to be empty. I kept waiting, then people came and came again. Someone asked me if I was gonna go, and I said "I might." I was scared of falling and rolling, having no control of it even if I was fine with the results. I was tired of it and wanted to go home.Then these people came. They weren't even skaters, just people chilling there—kids my age or a bit younger. They asked me what my name was, and they asked if I had done it yet. I said no. They said, "Stop thinking. Are you too scared? The more you think, the more scared you'll be. You just gotta send it."So they sat right there on the platform. They said, "We believe in you, you got this. Practice on the first one, the small one."I did that one. Then I went to the big one. These people cheered me on. Honestly, the only reason I did it was because they asked me if I was gonna do it this time, and I said yes. So I had to do it now. It wasn't to myself; I told them I was gonna do it.It wasn't about who it was, it was about the fact that SOMEONE did that. It allowed my nervous system to beat the adrenaline lock and click in. It was like cliff diving.I did it and slipped out at the bottom. I did it a second time and slipped out again. When I slipped, they said, "I just feel you got it." I did it a third time and stuck it! And a fourth, and a fifth, and a sixth. By that time, I was barely hesitating.Then I slipped another one. A dude who asked me earlier came back and said, "Are you gonna do it? Try again." So at least I shoved something today.It changed from a sweaty, scared feeling in my stomach to an even more scared one, but it felt excited. The sweat on my skin, the heat, the dehydration—I was there for hours and I'm glad. Yayyyy! So yayyyyyyyyy! Now I am free to skate, and I could do it anytime. And they cheered I don't know them but I notice everytime I go to a skatepark I don't even talk but I end up talking to people whether their asking about my Baird or their asking to try it or SOMTIEKS it's quiet or their asking you what's your name or their cheering you on etc . Btw I wasn't scared of falling just the pressing into the air

Nature costs money to simply sit in these days in England. Or they want you to be so patient that you give your whole life up waiting. That's why they force people to endure such horrible stuff—force people in genocides to wait because that's all they can do except beg online.

Do you want to know the real truth? The truth is firstly, people that say our life does naturalize us, and they act like, "oh, you're the big problem and liability." When you're just reacting to your environment that wasn't built for you.

Firstly, one of the biggest key things is the water. In many places it's unclean and polluted by chemicals, and the chemicals are sold to people as if they need them to be paid by the big companies. So let's talk about it. You literally need water to exist. We die without water. Without water, your pee stinks. Without water, you'll get so many effects. If you don't shower in water, you'll stink, your skin will become grimy and dirty. Let's think about it, mate.

Secondly, people with disabilities—there's not too much space for them in the world. Yes, accommodations are made, but fundamentally, the world wasn't built with them in mind. The world was supposed to be built with people in mind, but as it developed, it clearly wasn't. Because if you look at it, there's no space because the time and system can't profit off them the way they'd like to profit off everyone.

Let's talk about the simple thing that all they choose as a liability. When truly, let's look at it. In the past, we needed people who couldn't communicate the way language does. People who communicated without words when language was such an isolated concept. I'm not saying they have to be useful to you. I'm saying let's look at it as an evolutionary thing. And I think that's also the effects of our society.

Secondly, in the past we needed people who are hyper interested in things because people have to spend their entire lives dedicated to their craft, healing, fishing, looking for boats, spotting patterns, spotting liability, spotting who didn't seem genuine, and who was the traitor, and so much more stuff. And the truth is your body is just rejecting what wasn't built for you.

A lot of people don't have patience because that patience was lost in the system that wants you to be productive always. I'm not saying humans don't need rest. They do. But no, I'm talking about as a whole. Let's look at it, mate.

Your body rejects what your society has conditioned to be your normal. Of course we don't know any different. We're born to this. Yes, we do find fulfillment socially with nature, etc., but there is a lot that's so weird that we're taught to accept when it's not even our natural form.

And the system also likes to give few people ease. So when they think of a time in the past where they would've been with nature and having to take care of it, that's too much work, they would hate it.

But yes, there is true soul resonance in this world. Yes, there are many beauties. Still. .

Theres billions more I could say and more things that create ripple effects and joi together in ways and there's ways epole find to combat it ofc or ways you don't know often .but I needed to keep this short and readable .
