Tide Graph: Life’s a Beach The ocean is something that has mesmerized me since I was young. I used to sit in the car at our local beach and stare into the open water and watch the waves roll by.

Although I spent a lot of time on my own‚ I enjoyed waiting‚ watching and observing. So when my brother mentioned that he found

night and am flying home in a few hours. I was awakened this morning by the alarm clock and then loud TV sounds from the room next door to me. My immediate response was to be bothered and a bit frustrated. Then I realized "I am in California! The beach is literally outside my window and God gave me a glorious day to get up and go enjoy!"
