I Am the Beach

“I am the beach” The brilliant yellow sun slowly moves to the horizon and the voice of the beach, comes alive across the ocean waves. “I am the beach, and here you shall find peace.” “I am the beach and here you shall see and feel the power.” “I am the beach and here you shall find solace every hour.” For at this beach, there is much, that is revealed. The glistening grains of salty sand, that blanket, are a bed of comfort, too many. Pause, as you come upon this lively beach, and listen to the symphony of waves, the powerful sound of the wind and the chorus of birds, singing their own songs, as they glide through the blue sea sky. Feel the power of this beach, as it renews your inner being in a comforting way. You need not question the beach and its spiritual strength on any day. The omniscient power of a divine heavenly being is felt, heard and experienced at this beach. Every wave, every sound, every grain of sand and every pebble that is moved to shore by the thrust of the ocean's power is proof enough. Footprints, large and small, in the sand paint a beautiful picture amid the smell of the ocean air Create a mindset of freedom and little care. There is much to teach, but know for sure, I am the beach. -Nick Schneider 4-13-12
