8 Things I Learned from my Beach Walks

• It's interesting to look at the tracks in the sand, but, inevitably, you make your own
• Low tide creates an opportunity to walk where you've never walked before.
• The water is smooth as glass on some days, quite choppy on others, but it's always beautiful.
• Sometimes you can see clear across to the other side. Sometimes you can't even see 100 yards from shore.
• If  you don't stay present, you'll miss cool things like a turtle laying eggs.
• Some people greet you, some don't. It's all good.
• The consistent movement of water is what enables it to wear down rocks and sculpt the shoreline.
• "I'm so sorry I took a walk on the beach this morning," said no one ever.
