I opened my eyes to a new prespective of the world. I stood on top of dirt and dead leaves, I could clearly see the morning sky and its very first rays of sunshine. I felt slightly cold and had the permanent sensation that I had just stepped off a shower. My vision culd look down and I gazed once again at my frog feet...not even mad to be honest. My first feeling was what had the site told or made to my mother, my father, the people that loved me, and my friends? Did they thought I was missing? I only hoped that they had rewinded their memories or something similar.
In front of me was a body of water whose end I couldn't see. It wasn't wide but it had length. I was in some kind of path that lead to the water, in the other margin there was the same dirt path - like a rail in the woods. In each side there was vegetation that of normall woods: bushes, tall trees, fallen logs with putrid wood and moss covering it.
Many thoughts cross my mind...the one that prevails is to be aware of predators. But what predators? There seems to be no one or nothing around to me. Maybe a hawk could snatch me from the sky or a bobcat claw me to death...But right now I follow my instinct. I prepare to jump asmuch as I could, jump like when I was a human and would sit in a frog position and the leap I repeat. My body answers slightly differently, I feel myself so streched, my front webbed hands prepare for landing and the legs are all stiff when I'm up in the air...Oh, that freedom sure feels good. My landing isn't perect bu it's calm, I didn't know that toads had such good cushioning on their webbed hands and belly. I feel proud of myself. I repeat the jump again but this time I plunge in the water. It's not very deep right by the margin and all my body is immersed, hits the muddy bottom and a cloud of mud and some debris erupts. I open my eyes and I marvel as I actually feel safe. The murky water doesn't repel me and I used to remember how much the ocean would fright me because of the deep darker water, but here I feel as home as possible. My feet hit the bottom and impulse me to the top...once again I remember how annoying I thought to me in any body of water, pool, beach or river, when I came to the surface and had to clean my eyes so they would function properly. But now that's not needed.
The water envelops my body which remains unstressed - my legs are streched, my arms are pointing downwards, my head is abouve the water with my chest partially submerged. I feel great...I never felt like this since, never!
