Life as I know it is mostly a beautiful thing. Every time my girls smile and laugh, I remember what life is all about - living, laughing, and loving every minute of it. Well, maybe not EVERY minute of it, for there are those experiences which sadden and anger us and we don't wish to love those. Nevertheless we should embrace them, learn and grow from them, and appreciate them for helping build our character. Life as I know it is a beach. Preferably an ocean beach, in Maine...even though the water is cold...the rocky coast is truly something to behold...my life changes just as the beach changes with every crash of a wave, and the jagged coastline changes too, just more subtly and less noticeably. I would take a Maine beach over a Florida beach any day. I have plenty more beaches to see, God willing I can ever make it to them, and each visit will shape and change me, hopefully for the better. I know my girls are happy when they visit the beach. It's really about appreciating the simple things.
