That Thing You Do!

Have you truly been to the beach and watched how the waves capture your feet? Have you truly captured the waves by sitting silently and letting the ocean be an ocean?

Today, I sweated and I argued with my husband. This very second I also drank a beer and became numb to life. That is the thing I did today.

This evening, someone asked my husband for directions to the beach. My husband gave them the proper directions but it was that thing you do when you find yourself a “local”. I begin to laugh because are we now truly considered “locals”? Have we found home?

I walked over 600 miles to find that the thing I do is crazy at times. But the thing I do has also brought me peace and I am not sure if this is the thing we will truly do and stay. But I do challenge many of you to find the thing you do that makes you not only smile but makes you find yourself.
