Random Thought: You, as a Location

Perhaps I'm just a wee bit fixated because I'm on vacation but I've been looking about and wondering a great deal about who I'd be if I were a where. AZ is still undiscovered territory for me because we've only been here 4.5 years and leaving home base just isn't one of my favorite things to do. But whenever I'm in Sedona I feel very much at home in my mind, in my skin, on this Earth.

Today's random thought if you were a place where would you be, and why? Perhaps you already refer to yourself as a where-that too, is perfectly fine- really it is. Winks.

At this particular moment in time I'd have to say I'm Sedona, AZ. I'm not particularly young, and/or inviting like the new areas they're building up. (And, I mean this in the best way as I'm ever grateful to be in what I call the Age of Good Sense.) I'm classic and rugged and natural; my flaws have charm and add character. I'm mysterious and alluring and I stand perfectly unafraid of the threat of killer tides and a hot crackling core. It is so overwhelmingly comforting to see Mother Nature in the raw, no manicure (landscaping), no makeup (tall man-made structures) and, even a few scars and disappointments (fallen and dying trees lovingly left in place). Who knew a hike through the forest would be so remarkably introspective? How wonderful is that? Your turn...
