Barefoot Sunset
Yesterday evening, instead of sitting in front of the TV, working at the PC, reading or ‘enjoying’ the evening shopping, I was on the beach, running. As always on the beach, I had no shoes so as I was running, the sea water was cooling my feet. My only task was to look under my feet not to cut them open by the sharp shells or not to step on a jelly fish. Other than that, my brain was empty. I realized that if those were my only issues in life, life was not too bad.
Around me, there were still children playing in the water (and their parents who couldn’t manage to get them out), dogwalkers with their wet hairy buddies demanding yet another ball to be thrown into the waves, surfers waiting for the next best wave. Everybody seemed relaxed and enjoying themselves.
Then around 9.30 pm the sounds calmed down a bit and it looked as everybody chose a slower pace. Some of the people stopped talking, sat down and looked towards the west. The daily natural theater performance has started: the sun was setting down, quickly turning from huge heavy orange ball to a tiny burning red spot above the horizon.
And I was standing there, barefoot, with sweaty T-shirt and wet feet, among all those people who I didn’t know and they didn’t know me. And somehow the world was in harmony.
Enjoy running!
April Runs 
ooooh, nice pictures
Thanks – although it is the nature itself (not my little humble me) that makes it look so good.
Great pictures, I’ve got a wonderful feeling after reading and looking at the pictures.. Thanks! 12:)
Thank you, good to hear. We had 4 days of sunshine so I tried to utilize it to the max: 3 runs and 1 dinner accompanied by the sunset :-). Good luck tonight!
Beautiful, really stunning.
Haha, don’t worry, it is raining again!
