Me currently: Waves are crashing in the background of “Confidence” by Ocean Alley, splashing into my right ear, while the sun lightly tans my skin. The ocean, a calmer gray matching the sky. The breeze cool but inviting. My shorts and sweater combo has me ecstatic, a weird outfit obsession of mine that I consider optimum comfort. Andi is sitting across from me. Occasional interruptions coerce conversations about our backgrounds. I like learning like this. School by the beach is a change of pace that I welcome into my life.
My physical position and the senses around me are very important right now. They create sensations that allow me to connect to the world more, and to myself. I feel entranced by my environment. It’s absolutely magical to live your dream and embrace the beauty and radiance of such a wonderful happening in life.
Life feels beautiful. Life is brilliant. And here, during this pivotal stage of my journey, I am learning about the world and myself, enjoying meeting new aspects of me and honoring the parts that continue to blossom.
This is a post for me, to me. To remind me when times get challenging that happiness is available in the upturning of the corners of my mouth and taking on the perspective of positivity. To me the simple reminder that I can always find a beach, welcomes wonderful light and love into my life.
Find your place. Find your feeling, rhythm and vibe. Let yourself be excited by the subtle intricacies that make that special place just for you.
I live by the beach. Literally. Metaphorically. To be by the beach for me is to feel the most at home and happy. In Wollongong, I am settling in to this new world of endless independence, exploration and happiness. So exciting for me!
