Mandy took Cathi and I to her favorite beach. In typical us style, we didn't do much. We strolled; we looked for sea glass and pretty stones; we walked in both silence and laughter; we took flaughter pictures; we got Cathi in the water.
At one point, I called my friends over to me. I asked them to stand close, and with puzzled looks on their faces I angled the camera towards our feet. Suddenly they understood; they smiled and laughed and said what a great idea it was.
I felt the significance of that moment---of our feet, from all over the world, sharing the same space.
Looking at this picture, my heart swells. It holds a lot of meaning to me, in ways I can't even articulate.
I am thankful I'm not alone...
