Soar, despite the distractions
Mother Nature brought us another beautiful sunrise with a calm ocean and slight breeze. My lungs filled with the salty layer of salty fog hanging over the shore. The ocean looked like it was wearing a velvety orange blanket as it soaked up the color show. The textures on the sand and water were breathtaking.
The flock of seagulls, along with skimmers, royal terns, ruddy turnstones and sandpipers all flew in to enjoy taking a bath and watching the sun come greet the day.
So many messages today!
The flock of skimmers were resting rest with the royal terns. A skimmer said, “A quick cat nap helps reboot the battery. Being in the flock gives me a sense of safety, making it easier for me to relax. Even though we squabble, we bring each other comfort as a group and warn each other of danger.”
A ring-billed seagull walked over to say hello. She said, “When checking under the hood for bugs, it gives the opportunity to see things from a different angle. Clarity can come from different viewpoints.”
A seagull feel overhead with her wings and heart open. I could see she had quite a few bugs around her neck. She said, “Bath time is an important part of self care. You see, bugs can be pesky, so bath time is necessary to remove the negative distractions so I can soar with my heart and wings open.”
Wishing you groovy day friends!
