Lines of foam left on the sand by receding waves. Bits of pebble and shell. The texture of sand and its varied colors–despite what people tend to think. Not much but more than enough. Ephemeral yet eternal. The earth’s daily offerings.

For life and death are one, even as the river and the sea are one. –Khalil Gibran Life & Death* look at love how it tangles with the one fallen in love look at spirit how it fuses with earth giving it new life why are you so busy with this or that or good or bad pay attention to how things blend why talk about all the know and the unknown see how the unknown merges into the known why think separately of this life and the next when one is born from the last –Rumi *excerpt

All of Creation will teach us to praise if we but learn to look and listen.
