I went back to the ice rink. This time I shared
it with about ten other people, all of whom were better skaters than I will
ever be. All but one—he was probably three years old at most, just getting the
hang of things, taking sudden clown spills from a standstill.
Oh just reading this makes the arches of my feet hurt. I haven't been in several years. But the last time I went, I made myself skate through the pain because it is glorious.
ReplyDeleteI have not ice skated since I was a kid and had just received ice skates for Christmas. I quickly grew out of them and never skated again.
