I have watched tremendous storms with powerful surf and fierce winds eat away the shoreline. But, to society there is no cost comparable to beach's pleasures.

Of course not really but I call it my beach, because every time I am at this place there is nothing else but the beach and me. I'm walking in the sand, barefoot.

Feet And Making Walked Up The Beach Sand

It was a lovely afternoon and the sun was shining brightly above the horizon, with the sea soaking up some of its radiant rays, reflecting the others, and shimmering vibrantly under the sky.
