Tumbling

Remember being young and wanting to stand on your head, do a handstand, a cartwheel, a somersault, or any variety of flips and tumbles, so you did? With no regard to hurting yourself or the furniture?

I remember doing handstands and cartwheels in my grandmother's living room, inches from the TV, not even thinking about what would happen if I fell or how my life would be forfeit if I crashed into the TV.

I miss that. I still want to do handstands--all of the time. But I've lost that ability.
