As I walked on the beach leaving footprints behind, I felt my world falling apart. Each and every footprint was like a dark shadow, no willing to disappear but staying there forever. The cold breeze blew on my face slowly, just as time that pasts me by. Watching the waves beat hard on the shore, I wondered what was the meaning of life.
I started to run, hoping my mind would be clear of everything in this world.
When I could hardly breath, I stopped running.
My bare cold hands on my knees, I felt so tired of everything.
I knelt down with one knee on the ground, and touched the sand. Absent-mindedly, took a hand full of it and grasped it tightly. It did not stay. It went away, grain by grain back to the ground. So, that was it. Sometimes, the harder you hold on to something, the easier it pasts by you, leaving you alone. Just like water and sand. The harder you try to hold it tightly, the more it goes away.
I turned back to see my footprints, waves hit it and it was dissolving slowly.
Then, I knew. That was life. Give yourself a chance to let go. And, you will find wonders.
