A Gift from the Sea
Posted by Jody on June 29, 2013
Gift from the Sea
The sea does not reward those who are too anxious, too greedy, or too impatient.
One should lie empty, open, choiceless as a beach – waiting for a gift from the sea.
~Anne Morrow Lindbergh, Gift From the Sea

Thank you! I sometimes think that the most beautiful seashells are often bypassed for the ones with more pizzazz.

A Gift From the Sea is a favorite book of mine. There is wisdom to be found in nature. I love how every beach has its own unique sand and shells. Your picture reflects those simple elements beautifully.
