There are some moments in life worth taking the time to
appreciate. Case in point, a few nights ago, I went to drop something in my
outdoor trash after watching a movie on TV. It was 12:30 AM and chilly out, so
I had my house windows closed. As soon as I opened my front door, the ocean’s
waves sounded as if they were crashing against my door.
Awesome!
I grabbed a jacket and meandered to the sand and then on
down to the water. Though unnoticed by the masses, I soaked up every bit of the
show Mother Nature put on. A gentle breeze kissed my skin and wove its way
through my hair while churning white foam rushed to the shore after waves
curled over. Sparkling moonlight danced on the water’s surface as millions of
twinkling stars shone down from above, appearing as if all the world’s tiny
white Christmas lights had been tossed up in the sky where they’d remain until
next Christmas. I scarcely blinked, not wanting to miss a second of the beauty
that played out before me.
Like I said, there are some moments in life worth taking the
time to appreciate. I’m glad I didn’t miss this one.
