I am into my second week here at the beach...not just a beach, an Island. Surrounded by sea, salt and sand. Gentle breezes, deep aqua water with just enough waves to sooth you to sleep as you rest on your lounge chair...textured sand wraps around your feet and warm your bones as it travels up through your body...Then lazy walks and shells to collect...nothing to do but so much to do of nothing...
It is my refuge, my healing spot, my Buddha and my God...it is nature in all it's dimensions...both calming and beautiful, then at times it becomes fierce and dangerous...all of nature follows this path...that is why it is intriguing...you can never let your guard completely down...but it is also why it is healing and mysterious...you learn to trust it and you learn to let go and trust yourself.
Last week in 2B our lesson was to pick a color and then make a story board of the color...this was an easy lesson for me...not so much on the technical side but certainly as I walked the beach I knew right away that I would compose a photo from my surroundings, and the beauty is there...it was a calm, late afternoon, just full of perfect light..a gift of the Gods and I went to work...I like what I see..
Just so you know not every day is calm like that...today the sea swallowed my I-phone...bummer...but I'll be back because you give me so many hours of pleasure and peace, you can have my phone....
Where is your peace...go find it.
