The girl runs alone on the beach
waves arrive from the other side of the world
I have stories to tell

A day on the beach
Beach walk
Sunny and cool day. We walked our 8,000 steps on the beach.
Love & Loss
“Real tragedies don’t need to be redeemed, they need to be remembered.”
“There are times when sorrow seems to be the only truth.”
-Shannon Leone Fowler, Traveling With Ghosts

another celebration
Last Wednesday, Mrs. Abstract and I celebrated our wedding anniversary. We went to Monterey (California) and spent the days watching the ocean, walking in the Cannery Row, or just lounging and warming each other, sitting, sipping wine next to a fire pit on a cloudy day.
the children and the sea
Now? Think over?
With the ocean just a few steps away what would you like to do?
Leave the chairs and walk towards the ocean.
Dance in the water.
Build a house on the cliff above the ocean.
I stand alone on the beach
Before the light fades
I stand alone on the beach
my nothingness bared to the elements
I stretch my arms to behold the sea
the immensity of the water that circles the world
the waves that swell with beauty
the fear that enters my heart
when the storm comes
I hold this moment
a moment of clarity and grandeur
I bow with humility and gratitude
to the great mystery.
Darkness and light
The day
follows the darkening sky
and remains of the sun.
How do you measure hope?
