Sometimes you have to get on the ground in order to see what is ahead of you. Look up and look around. It's another world out there when you open your eyes and look.

Find your place
Pieces of my heart are scattered on several beaches in this fine country of ours, but the beach that has claimed the majority of my heart is Bear Lake. I do love ocean front property, so scattering pieces of my heart along the sandy beaches of California, I feel like I own a part of it and that I can go back anytime to see them...
The sun greets me each day as it peeks over the mountain tops to the east, laying a foundation of sunshine on the water that on most mornings is smooth, looks like glass, and you feel as if you can walk on it....other times the lake can get angry. White caps, rolling waves...it tells people it's time to find something else to do..........
I enjoy my coffee each morning staring out over the lake regardless of what the weather conditions are. It's my time, my quiet time. It's where I literally don't have a care in the world. My mind will start to wander mindlessly. I'm not thinking about what I need to get done or where I need to be. All I am thinking about is how good my coffee tastes, how alive I feel at that very moment, and how the sunlight captures the beauty that surrounds me.....Mother Nature has taken over and is giving me a chorus of birds singing, water kissing the beach edge, and my soul being filled by the warmth of the sun, the cool crisp air kissing my cheeks, and Charlie the dog looking like she could care less!!!
Summer time is here. I've returned from one venture to the lake and will soon be heading out for another round in a few weeks time......I only left a small piece of my heart on the sandy beach of Bear Lake as I know I will be back real soon to leave another piece to lay right next to it. By summers end it will once again have a stronger hold on my heart.
Find your place where life takes a back seat, where you can refuel your soul and inner self.
Let your inner child out to play.......I do...this blog is named after her...Sarah Smiles....
