Sitting by the dock of the bay

I believe my destination and my journey are different from the person who is sitting right next me. I also believe that no two journeys or paths are the same. We are all unique and special in our own way. Our uniqueness is what makes us beautiful. I would be bored if everyone was exactly like me. I like to be challenged every now and then. Yes, I can get frustrated with things and people but I really don’t mind it. I say the more triggers you make the better I get. LOL! Have you taken the time to reflect recently? When was the last time you were sitting by the dock of the bay?

Literally sitting under the dock of the bay and I’m watching my life/time roll away listening to Otis Redding’s “Sitting on the dock of the bay” song.

Soaking up the sun 🌞

Today I’m listening to the waves crash on the ocean floor. I decided to take a drive down to the Ocean Mist Beach Bar in South Kingstown, RI to meet up with my girlfriend. I needed to feel the sun’s rays beat against my flesh. The sun was hitting me in the right spot. Shining onto my face and body and allowing me to take in the natural vitamin D. As a result, my body felt so good to put my feet into the warm sand and lie down. I thought to myself, what is better than this? Seriously, what is better than feeling stress free and happy? I’m relaxing by this enormous beauty formed from mother nature. Content I am. Happy I am. One I am.

Thru the window box

What do you see in the picture below? Well, I see that the ocean view is obscured by a frame of wood. In order for me to get a better view, I must take a step forward in order to capture the whole scene. To me, moving forward meant moving past the blockages of bar stools and people in my way or in other words life. Yes, of course I could have taken a step back and lost site of the entire seascape altogether.

Small Adjustments Can Make A Difference

On the other hand, I could have stayed right where I was and not making a move at all. That would mean I would have to continue to glance at the ocean from a picture box. Of course I wanted a better picture so graciously I made my way to the opening. My Picture is a gorgeous view and breathtaking it was. At that moment in time I got a glimpse of my past, present and future all at that one moment of an ocean view.

As one day ends another begins

We always hear the term “when one door closes another opens“, the same is true when we say as one day ends another begins. The sun sets and then rises again. In Sheri terms the wave in motion is filled with emotions. Turning our days into nights and our nights into days. I was always taught that the moon controls the tides (high and low) and that the moon also controls or has an effect on our emotions. I guess that is why they say “my emotions are like the waves in the ocean“.

The Future Has Not Happened Yet

The world is turning continuously. Our minds and emotions are always moving at top speed just like a roller coaster. Here’s a good one for ya, the ocean was here before the roller coaster came into existence. Did that make you think for minute? Some days we are left wondering if this peacefulness will stay or go. If pictures can say a thousand words than I see the future further out in the distance. It’s possible to get to my future, but why do I need to speed thru my present to get there? I need to embrace my present because before we know it we will be missing the past.

Are you feeling trapped by our own existence? Do you embrace the struggles of today? Do you ever feel better when you are soaking up in the sun?
