A walk by the beach

With the sun still half asleep and the cool water splashing on the soft sands, life seems to be a lot more serene and beautiful. A stroll on the beachside with the water hitting you to the appropriate level awakens you to a bright, happy day.

This morning few friends and myself visited a lazy and quiet beach close to college, and all of us would agree that it was the best way to start the week. Splashing the water at each other, clicking pictures till our hearts were contended and just lazing around was how this Sunday kick started.

To think about a lost loved one, to re-visit those moments spent with a lover you miss, to just play with the sand remembering one’s childhood, to collect shells and take them back home to, probably, just beautify your house, are few of those lovely things we did there. I could see the excitement on everyone’s faces when they saw a starfish; something they claim they had never seen before. To pose to a zoom lens the ‘poster’ way, with each of us looking at different directions made us feel like stars. Seeing a man perform two somersaults at a stretch was an awe we enjoyed with a wide open mouth.

I am sure a lot many of you would have enjoyed strolling by the beach. There definitely is no better place to be when you want to be alone or have a good time, to enjoy nature’s beauty at its best.

This post makes me want to hit the beach right away. There's something very enchanting about beaches. You feel romantic, at peace, melancholic, wildly happy - all at the same time. Lovely pic! :)
