What did I do to deserve this?
As I sat there on the beach, looking out to the vast Pacific expanse before me, I wondered how I was so lucky as to be there. At 4:45 am, the tide was coming in. I was awake, and sitting there in my sleeping bag, watching the water come closer and closer.
Then I noticed something strange in the sand. When a wave would run up onto the sand, and would touch new sand, there would sometimes be a little yellow-green glow that lit up in the sand as the water pulled away, just at the edge. I don’ t know what it was, or if it was a real or not, but it looked pretty cool. I loved it out there.
