Walking on the beach

The wind tugs at my dress. I hear the sound of the waves as the sunlight sparkles on the surface of the water. Out in the bay, a boat is anchored, but beyond that, I am alone. Alone, but not lonely. Completely at peace with myself, with space to breathe, far away from the pressure of others. I take this little moment of freedom deep into my soul.
