Sunset at the beach.



The sea intrigues me, but it also heals me and soothes me in many ways. I love to watch the sunrises as well as the sunsets at the beach.  The sea has a mystery around it just like the mind of a man. The sea last two days looked calm and tranquil but at the same time it looked as if it had receded a bit. After the tsunami the walking distance to the sea water on the sands had been drastically becoming shorter.  The waves behaved in a different manner, making different shapes in the sand.

Water has an amazing influence on the mind, like the waves the mind is enhanced to widen or narrow. The sea draws me to it and never fails to fascinate me. It takes out the worst confusions of my mind and brings out the best. The sea like the mind is peaceful and quiet at times, but sometimes it is stormy and dangerous; like the mind it has a tendency to be polluted. But  everything said and done,  when I stand by the sea digging my toes in the sand, it never fails to soothe the storm raging in my mind.

The sun rising from the sea at the beach is a healing sight. The same way the sunset too. I love to watch the formations of the clouds, when the sun is shrouded by dark clouds. My mind too like the sun was shrouded by a lot of disturbing thoughts that had been plaguing me with the thought that I was at a crossroad where something was eating into me. A rebel like me was not able to shake it off however I tried to.

I was watching the sun shrouded by clouds and at a point of time it looked like the sun was caught in the mouth of a big python. I watched it with a confusing mind and then I saw the clouds slowly changing formations and the sun was below them like a pearl coming out of an oyster. I observed it with an awe and realized that my mind too was at ease. If my mind was disturbed it was because I was allowing it to. Why think of a situation that hasn't come yet? So slowly I walked away from the sea towards the sunset that eased my mind grateful for the time I spent with nature who was always like a mother soothing and healing me.
