Deliberate action

Ahhhh, with a glassy ocean, light breeze and a layer of salty fog, the morning was extra serene.  The quiet was palpable and helped my body relax into the moment.  The sun came up over the calm ocean surrounded by a few clouds before filling the sky with a golden glow. 

A chatty flock of gulls, ruddy turnstones and egrets flew in for breakfast and bath time.  The egrets stealthily walked the beach looking for snacks and bringing us the message today. 

They said, “We highly recommend being conscious about each step.  You see, being present in the moment and deliberate about our actions helps us score breakfast.”

A laughing gull standing next to one of the egrets swallowing a fish was begging for him to share. Egrets are not known for their generosity, so we know how that turned out.  

Wishing you a beautiful day friends!
