At the Shore



                                                                     At the Shore

   This is a magical place,
   a place where water meets the sandy shoreline,
   and on a sunny day, the water glistens like millions of rippling diamonds.

   On a cloudy day, the water looks murky, and shadows crisscross the water 
   and shore.

    Sunny or cloudy, the shoreline is best for meditation and re-connecting with
    one's innermost self. At the shore of any body of water, I am immediately 
    plunged into my inner world of thoughts, dreams and future plans.
    What causes this sudden shift of gears? Why do we tend to slow down
    at the shore?

    Nature envelops us, and our thoughts begin to be seen reflected against a         larger backdrop,giving them more perspective.

    Some people may find their peace in the mountains, or on a remote bike trail, 
    camping trip, or resort, but for me peace, joy and tranquility are found
    where water meets the shore.
