Why is a day at the beach so good for you? I mean, if you break it down, there's the whole skin-cancer worry, the seagulls are actually quite raucous, the breeze can be annoying, and the sand gets into everything.
I've given up my lounge chair. It's too much to carry. Besides, lying on a blanket ON the sand feels like the Earth is cradling you in the palm of its hand. The warm sun kisses your skin and your soul, and the breeze blows away the chaff from your spirit. The sound of the waves, calm or not, is the best soundtrack I know for either thinking deep thoughts or reaching the nirvana (for my rattle-trap brain) of pure, unadulterated, and complete non-thinking.
Today was just such a day. my son and I both fell asleep on the blanket for a few short, quiet, blissful minutes.
I LOVE the beach...........................
