The Sea
does not reward
those who are
too anxious
too greedy
or too impatient
To dig
for treasures
shows not only
impatience and greed
but lack of faith.
PATIENCE
PATIENCE
PATIENCE
is
what the sea
teaches
PATIENCE
and
FAITH
One should be
empty
open
choiceless
as a beach
waiting
for a gift
from the sea.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Gift from the sea

We can be inspired
in many ways
Long ago
I found a beautiful
old book on a market
at first sight
it was the colour
BLUE
and
the golden lettering
than I read
GIFT BY THE SEA
I supposed
it was a book about shells
and I LOVE SHELLS
The book was a SURPRISE
and a wonderful gift
and very inspiring
a gift for life

Wish you a weekend
with a favorite

I think that is why my son loves the sea so much, Francis. There is a peace to be found there. This book sounds wonderful. The sea is very mysterious, isn't it? I love the little sea shells on your side bar.
