Slowly moving off-shore and over open ocean, rain rains.
“Rain I don’t mind, shine the weather’s fine. I can show you that when it starts to rain, everything is the same, when the rain comes down.” – John Lennon
Wild mystery
Vastly universal
Heart of sea
Walking the ruggedly idyllic juncture where the land meets the sea, everyday is uniquely presented. The coastline produces distinctive appearances with varying resistance to energy discharge.
“The Ocean has its silent caves, Deep, quiet, and alone; Though there be fury on the waves, Beneath them there is none.” – Nathaniel Hawthorne
Lapping shores
Shimmering sand
Whispering ripples
With an intimate sense of cooperation and imperturbability, the rolling sea is constantly convolutional, reconfiguring the abutting land edge.
“When relaxing or reflecting, movement can enable or mediate the thoughts and feelings of the walker; the environment walked in is also likely to be part of this thinking and feeling process.” – Christopher Tilley
Simple placement
Light and waves
Mood of delight
Walking over the top of lumpy dunes on the Outer Banks, moving towards the ocean, vibrations from the tumbling waves instinctively calm the nerves.
“Time is a wave or a black hole could not bend it; humanity rides the crest of an infinite number of waves that are perceived as linear in their limited frame of reference.” – Ken Poirot
Decorative notions
Excessively articulated
Speculative intellect
At long range, certain things become intimate.
“Returning home is the most difficult part of long-distance hiking; You have grown outside the puzzle and your piece no longer fits.” – Cindy Ross

Clouds on and above the beach, for a brief moment awareness becomes immersed as a projection of the universe.
“What color is in a picture, enthusiasm is in life; therefore, it is no little thing to try to keep that enthusiasm.” – Vincent van Gogh

The beach elicits a relaxed and natural peacefulness, rejuvenating mind and body. Sensitive to the beautiful varieties of ambient light and sound, the total scene tends to promote an active calmness.
“Sustained effort ends in effortless being. One must enter into the rhythm of one’s own true nature.” – Ananda Moyi Ma
Punctuated by intervals
Day remained bright
Top of the world
Far-off from the distant horizon, wandering up and down the undulating shoreline, the early morning riser is well rewarded. Rumbling surf dominates in this remote outpost of possibility, with full magnificence proceeding on every side.
“I can still feel all your sunlight shine before the dawn — First light morning feeling’s got me losing so much sleep.” – Craig Fuller
Interval mobility
Essential moments
Heterogeneous continuity
Contingent creative novelty incessantly transpires, shifting the form of appearance. As consciousness is filled with psychical evolution, the coherence of harmonious interpenetration in time is congruent with instantaneous juxtapositions.
“This duration may not be the fact of matter itself, but that of the life which reascends the course of matter; the two movements are none the less mutually dependent upon each other.” – Henri Bergson
