Within each, is a life story

One of my favourite beaches in Western Australia is Pebble Beach, in Exmouth (north of Perth). I love walking along the shore, head bent low, picking up pebbles that have stories to tell. It is a beach library.

Pebble Beach, Exmouth, Western Australia

The pebbles come from around the escarpment, once deposited, they lie dormant and are warmed by the sun and my smile.

Ordinary to the eye, say some.

For some, they may be ordinary, but for me, if you pick up one of these ‘hot potatoes’, the sea will whisper a life story.

Do you see, what I see?.

I admit to bringing some home with me each time I visit this beach and I’m looking forward to my trip again next month.

Holding the pebbles is as soothing as the ebb and flow of tides. There is a certain continuity to this … we come from the waters of the womb, as do these.

Until next time

As always
