Special Place to Relax and Find Inspiration
People usually prefer going to some special places that relax and inspire them. Visiting these places helps de-stress them and fills them with a new energy to face tough situations in life. I too face my share of difficult situations in life and I like to go to beaches whenever I am exhausted. Beach is that special place to me that relaxes and inspires me. I often visit this particular beach in the United States that is formed at the shoreline of an ocean. The best part of this beach is its vastness, and its exuding power and energy. The infiniteness of this creation of God makes my adversities and disappointments appear insignificant. Beaches make me generously appreciate the supremacy of God’s creation vis-à-vis man-made world and survival struggles.
The magical moment created by a combination of natural factors rejuvenates me completely. The limitless shore, the gushing sounds of the wind, the cool breeze, the freshness and the unending waves under the dark sky put me into a state of awe. I get completely engrossed in it, forgetting all my worries and setbacks. This atmosphere of serenity and calmness refreshes and relaxes me from within. More importantly, it soothes my mind and my soul. The piousness of nature brings stillness to my wandering thoughts and channelizes them in a productive way. I can sit there for hours introspecting and finding solutions to my real life problems. Walking on the shore and analysing self, I at least gain peace of mind and a better understanding of self, if nothing else.
Beaches not only relax, but also inspire me. They inspire me by their energy and continuity. They are ever so vivacious, energetic and full of life. Its vibrancy increases multi-folds with arrival of children. I can experience a positive flow of energy within me, while standing in front of the beach. The continuing and ever ending waves instil a ‘never say die’ attitude in me. It helps me stay put in difficult situations. The waves keep moving irrespective of hindrances like rock and stone pebbles. In fact, they strive so hard that the rock gets smoothened. Problems in life are very similar to rocks and hinder with our steady flow in life. However, if we strive hard, we can even these odds and stand victorious. The enigmatic characteristic of the ocean also inspires me. I can relate to the enigma of ocean with the mystery and surprises in life.
The beach brings me closer to the nature and makes a better human being out of me. It helps me digress from the evils like jealousy, distrust, and corruption. It teaches me to trust; stay put in hardships; and give back to nature in all possible ways. It demonstrates selflessness and encourages me to serve the mankind. It helps me understand my inner self, my inner feeling and my consciousness.
Thus, going to a beach relaxes me and inspires me. It relaxes me by its serene and magical atmosphere. The calmness and freshness helps me introspect and understand myself better. The boundlessness, vibrancy and continuity of the ocean inspire me to never give up, strive hard to fight adversities. It fills my mind with positivity and makes me a stronger person. Beach experience makes me a better person by removing evil thoughts from my mind and motivating me to contribute to the society at large. Overall, it brings me closer to myself.
