I was sitting on the front porch this afternoon, leaning over the rail, indulging in the warm brightness of the spring sun's rays. I closed my eyes for a moment and suddenly, vividly recalled lying on my beach towel in the sand at Cocoa Beach, hearing the waves break, feeling the sun warm on my face and the breeze blowing across my brow, smelling and tasting the salt in the air. It was one of the only times in my life so far I was totally and completely at peace, if only for a moment. That was on my Senior Class trip, seven years ago now, and I still remember it like it was yesterday.
I love springtime!
About Me
- Heather
- Blacksburg, Virginia, United States
- Where to start? Well, start at the beginning, as the Mad Hatter said, and when you get to the end...stop. I'm 25, married, and living in the mountains. I'm a student at Virginia Tech, working towards a BS in Crop & Soil Environmental Sciences (yeah, it's a long major) with a focus in agro-ecology, and a BA in Philosophy. My husband and I welcomed our son into the world on February 6 of this year. We hadn't planned on a family so soon, but if it's happening, it must be for a reason! My philosophy is this: Every moment could be your last. Never let an opportunity go by to tell the people you love how much they mean to you. Always ask yourself, "What can I learn today?" And above all, never let anyone else tell you how to live your life. Only you will know what is important to you. "All you touch and all you see / Is all your life will ever be" ~Pink Floyd
