In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks. ~ John Muir
Today my friend Gordana and I went to Grand Beach, one of the most beautiful beaches in Canada because of its glorious sand. It was a perfect summer day with the heat turned up full blast, the sky bright blue, and cool water to refresh one’s soul. I LOVE summer. I love summer in Winnipeg. I may be sitting in the dark in my apartment right now, trying to keep cool as I write this, but I would not swap a perfect summer day for anything.
I took a long walk by myself on the beach, one of the few, I am afraid, that I will get in this summer as I am away so much of it. Walking on the beach is one of my most favourite activities. I love being at the beach, seagulls flying overhead, colourful umbrellas dotting the landscape, children laughing and splashing around, and all the joys that a day at the lake can bring. Those are my pedicured toes in this picture. Walking barefoot in the sand is therapeutic even if a physiotherapist would disagree with me.
Walking along the shore today, I honestly admitted that I am very much at peace with my life right now. There are many questions and yet, I have slipped into summer mode and feel that Nature is gifting me abundantly with serenity. What a joy!
Peace,
Suzanne
