Back at it!

I can’t believe that less than 72 hours ago I was in Tokyo bundled up in winter clothes freezing my ass off! And now I am in the Philippines sitting on one of the most beautiful beaches I have ever seen. It has been almost 2 months since I have seen the sunset. For me it’s truly one of nature’s most beautiful things to watch. They call people that like to sit on the beach all day “Beach Bums” I choose to call them “Smart”. I was soo happy to be back on the beach I forgot to put on sunblock. So I am now sporting a pretty sweet amateur tourist sunburn! I think I have just realized why I like being at the beach so much. When I am sitting on a beach there is an innocent feeling in the air. The sounds of kids playing in the water with not a care in the world, old grandmothers frolicking in the waves as if they we’re 13 years old again. The real world seems to drift away for a moment. All the negative things in the world that are drilled into our heads on a daily basis by the media fade into the horizon. And for this brief moment in time, the 4 kids in front of me, the grandmother to my right and myself are 100% at peace with ourselves and the world we live in.
