When I Leave...


When I Leave…

 

When I leave, think about the ocean. The way it creeps onto the shore and washes over your feet. Think of that cold tingly feeling between your toes that sends shivers through your body…

 

Remember me when you take a deep breathe after you’ve taken that first step outside and into the sand. That salty cool air filling your lungs and reminding you just how good it feels to be alive Think of me when you hear the swaying of palm trees blowing in the breeze.

 

And when you think of me…

Smile, because sadness is the biggest tragedy in life.
