The Peaceful Life at the Coast
There is nothing more beautiful than sunrise at the coast. It is the promise of a new day, another opportunity for a new beginning. As the colors streak across the skies, I feel so blessed to witness this stunning beauty.

Days at the coast are soothing, relaxing and good for the soul. Here, God’s handiwork is evident every day. From sunrise till sunset, you’ll see the waves roll in, feel the sand between your toes and watch the seagrass wave in the ocean breeze. Seagulls flying above, children building sandcastles and multi-colored umbrellas dot the beach. This is the peaceful life.
Beachcombers are out at daybreak to see what treasures the ocean left overnight. Fishermen have set up poles in the surf and on the pier waiting for the catch of the day. As the sun rises high in the sky, lunch is served on the deck. Then, afternoon naps or a good book are calming to our minds. This is the peaceful life.

It is here, at the coast, that I walk in JOY during the day and sleep in PEACE at night.

It is so easy to walk in joy at the coast. Time moves slowly leaving space to ponder all the great thoughts on your mind. You can mozy down to the edge of the water and write your wishes and prayers in the sand. Enjoy the ocean breeze as you gently sway in the hammock between the palm trees.
Your mind and body have been calmed by the sound of the waves and the gentle breeze. Your heart and soul are full of all the beauty of the day at the coast. Now, it is time to sleep in peace.

My husband and I were married on the beach in the fall of 2018. We enjoy splitting our time between city life and the slower pace of coastal life.
