From the moment my feet touch the sand, my toes sink into the warm to very hot pleasure of the beach, and it becomes a haven of sorts. A place to go in the mind where no one can follow. Even if you are with others, the moments seem to be your own. If only to enjoy a beautiful day, a light breeze and the methodical roll of the ocean going in and out, sometimes leaving the gifts of shells and remains or stones from beneath the ocean. In combination , the sounds of seagulls all raise the senses to anew level and carry the mind to a serine place. Whatever is on the mind, it will settle and resolve itself. No matter how out of sorts , the beach will surely put things together and right. So you are changed by its salty taste, the sounds, and feel of all around.
A wonderful human experience.
