Crawlers

High up towards the nurturing Sun. Millions of tiny legs, biting, digging deep. The run is on...who will win?
Spreading fast. Conquering. Feeding.
Cruel life.

A Happy Place


Do you have a "Happy place"? I do. 

It's a beach in the South of Vietnam I always "go" to whenever I'm feeling blue.
I like sit on the soft, warm sand, burying my toes in the cooler damp layers underneath.
It’s always sunset when I "get" there . Deep reds, yellows and purples illuminate the sky and dance on the calm water’s surface.
I'm normally alone with the sounds and smells of the dying day. Sometimes there are people playing in the water. Lovers. Happy and content.


I sit there and watch the waves break. It feels like the ocean is “breathing” in and out. I try to time my breathing with the ocean’s and sink into my thoughts, leaving all stress, worries, sadness, anger, or whatever damaging feeling have brought me there behind. Time becomes of irrelevance and I “wake up” feeling refreshed and ready to face the world again.
