At the Beach

A few days ago after a break between class and work I went to a local beach to kill some time. To me it's one of those places where you can just have some quiet time to yourself. Just listening to the ocean can be soothing. I thought of those times as a kid I'd get up early before the sun came up(and everyone else) . Hop on my bike and ride down to the beach to watch the sun come up. I thought it was pretty cool then. I know at times since then when I've had stressful times in my life I'd take an early ride to the ocean to cool off. It seems to be a place I'm drawn to. It's a nice way to recharge your batteries. I feel bad for those that can't experience that feeling. I'm sure many of us have different places that we can draw back on.
