I went for a run by the beach this morning. The ocean breeze was nice on my skin, and the early rays of the sun lit the world in pastel color. I’m not usually the type to talk to strangers, but today felt different.

Its lulling warmth contrasts the gentle punch of the breeze where it shines through onto the sidewalk through the branches overhead.
