Gone in a flash

I walk to the ocean. I smell the salt humid air. I breathe!
The air brushes across my face attempting an air-painting! The Sun is setting into the Pacific. I see: a couple enjoying the setting Sun from their chair looking out for the ocean; a couple trying to get their feet wet in the cold waters; kids showing-off their sand castles to their parents; a family playing 'fetch' with their dog.. The air is cold! In a few moments, the Sun will be gone for the day & fill the sky with twinkling stars for the romance to stay!
I, like a million others, am witnessing all of this with a cup of hot chocolate & my hubby. That makes my day.

I close my eyes & all this is just a flash. It has been a while since I've done all that. Miss it so much!
Maybe, its "Nature's call"!

Sometimes, I forget to remind myself to live every moment. When everything seems to go wrong, there is this hope, this tiny happiness that sparks your day!
All this, just around the corner. Just take a turn around!

I know what you mean here! We get so caught up in all "crap" that we forget the important things....I just loved the way you painted a picture !
