We don't worry about the wind. Generally. I can't say it won't ever hurt you, but you can reef. Batten the hatches. Put your shoulder forward, and tuck your face down.
We know the real danger is the water. It always is. The wind whips it up into waves. Walls of water, relentless and dense. So heavy. So much energy.
You come up within me like a wave sometimes. I used to fight it, but it made it worse. I wish it would tear me apart sometimes instead but it just crushes.
Still, beautiful.
