The Journey Inward

Here are a few things that brought me joy today, simple pleasures that have no accompanying pictures because I just soaked in and savored the moments.

A little dog striding briskly on top of the rock wall high above the bay. He was sure footed and never looked down, like he owned that pier.

A baby on a picnic blanket in the shade with a big straw sun hat on his head. He never once fussed with it or took it off; instead, he seemed to have accepted it as if he had chosen it.

A man riding his bike slalom style, weaving in and out of a line of street lamps that ran the entire distance of that section of the pier, a grin on his face.

The shell shaped concert venue on the bay running its soundcheck that reached my ears no matter where I was along my waterside path.
