Gifts from the Sea

The other day when I was at the ocean during high tide, the invisible nature of what was beneath the surface made an impression on me. Six hours later I returned when the tide had receded; there were all sorts of wonderful things to observe; beautiful stones, shells, hermit crabs, bright green sea anemones, eelgrass mixed with brilliant red algae and so much more. In another six hours, the tide would return and blanket all these gifts from the sea. 

I asked myself “how often do I overlook such gifts in life?” What gifts are literally before my eyes or seemingly invisible that I am missing? What gifts are right there, waiting to provide the inspiration or support I need in that very moment? 

Let’s walk through today together with awareness and appreciation of these invaluable gifts before us. I would love to hear what gifts you discovered.
