This is a picture I did not take

Of the sand beneath my feet, the sound of waves breaking, an occasional shell poking the bottom of my foot, the sun halfway sinking into the water-filled horizon, groups of adults talking as they bathe in the sun’s rays, kids splashing in the cold water, seagulls flying and stealing food from families, the smell of salt crashing into my nose, the immense amount of peace filling my lungs with serenity, the wind carrying my negative thoughts away for a while, the beauty of the beach etching its mark on my soul.
