So Joyful by the Ocean of Abalone Cove Reserve! 😊🙏❤️🌊🐠🐬🏝🧘🏻‍♀️☯️☮️

Hello everyone, I hope you have a great start of the day! 🤗❤️🌺

It was cloudy over the weekend so I was unable to spend my time at the beach. Here came Monday around, the sky was so blue and the sun shined through, so I decided to venture out to the most nature place where I could see all the seals, tide pools, and magnificent ocean in Palo Verde. I enjoyed one of the most breathtaking trail looking over the Ocean of Abalone Cove Reserve. Since a child, I always gravitate towards the beach, an unexplained deep connection with the ocean. I would spend a whole day playing in the sand with my little bucket and shovel. I love collecting seashells and interesting shape of rocks. When I’m surrounded by the salty sea breeze, I feel so invigorating to dive deep into the Ocean of Life! I emerged myself in my totality as I am part of the Ocean, my body is made up with water, salt and chemicals just like ocean seawater.

Standing on top of the canyon, looking over the vast ocean, I felt so loved, so embraced that there was such a magnetic pull to this Planet. I was wide arms opened, head lifted up towards the sky, completely be in tuned with the sea breeze and the sound of the waves. One deep breath in, I heard no noise but the serenity of my being; one deep breath out, I felt so much gratitude towards my existence. And in the end was a rush of all creative ideas that I could renew, rebirth, reinvent myself to each moment I walk on this Earth. I feel so exhilarating that I celebrated my day in the mystic realm of this Universe. 🌊🌎❤️

Hi Kokmthere is nothing like the fresh breeze from the ocean it seems very purifying so nice one as this all looks stunning. 😊

Hi Jerry, it was my sea breeze therapy 😁. It’s the call of the Sea for me and the view was breathtaking. Those seals were so playful and sunbathing all over the rocks. The tide was high so not enough time to explore all wonderful tide pools. Have a good rest of the day Jerry! 😊🙏🌺

Awwwwww……… maybe i should give this a go. I never take myself to the beach. We have a beautiful ocean here in BC. The Mountain View I barely see from my location. I should take myself away to the mountain and sea wall. It’s not like it’s far lol. Maybe that’s what we all need to connect with the water, nature, and be at one.

Great photography. Lovely.

Hi Happenstances, yes please do when you have a chance. There’re so many benefits from sea breeze for our airway and the sound of the waves against the rocks is so calming. We can find so many answers for ourselves by connecting to Mother Nature. I love looking at nature photos to bring me back to present when I’m in my house. Have a wonderful rest of the day! 😊🙏🌺

Hi Happyman4, Thailand has so many beautiful beaches. If I’m not mistaken, the movie Beach was filmed over there. It’s unfortunate that they are closed over there but once they’re opened again, a family trip to the beach is so much fun. Have a wonderful rest of the day! 😊🙏🌺

Hey that's great you were able to enjoy yourself out by the water. I like going to the beach too. It's rejuvenating...seeing and hearing the waves roll and crash onto the rocks, and listening to nature really opens up the senses and clears and replenishes the mind and body. I figure I'll head there this weekend. The one I go is a state park with it's own beach

[Hidden in reply to Kainan]

For sure Kainan esp when you finish your finals this week. 😁👍 I’m glad you find nature therapeutic for your mind and body. What would you choose the mountain or the beach? 😂 Hmm state park with its own beach is going to be busy on the weekend though. 😅 Oh you can bring a little mat to sit on while meditating there also. 😁👍

P.S. don’t forget to take pics and share 🤗

[Kainan in reply to Hidden]

There's a nice bench to sit on facing the ocean so that's my spot 🙏

I prefer the mountains because I like a little challenge going up and heading down. It's a good feeling, one that I also enjoy

[Hidden in reply to Kainan]

Oh nice spot Kainan!😁👍 You will get seagulls visitors on the bench 😂Sure you are mountain man 😁

[Kainan in reply to Hidden]

That’s such an intelligent response at young age. 😂🤣 And he collected seashells also. I can’t believe we have the same hobbies. ❤️ I remember whenever he was not in school, he would swim n swim at the river forever. Guess what? when I was in Highschool, swimming was my PE. I used swimming practice as a way to escape from home. I think that’s why I love water so much because i associate it with peace and freedom. Thank you for telling me such beautiful story. 🤗
