Not a flower in sight this Coastal Living Week. Instead, it’s time to appreciate the cyclical edginess of life.

There’s something about the sea. Perhaps it’s the relentlessness and power, the sense of endurance. It encourages philosophy and acceptance.

As for beaches, they have to be the ultimate in edginess. Sky meets ocean meets land.

This week, life is filled with awe. Try as we will, we can’t change some things, and this week that truth confronts us. So, like the sea, we will shift, retreat, return, and endure.

There is peace in accepting our powerlessness, just as embracing our strength recreates our world.
