As you can see I chose the picture of a sunset at the beach, why you ask? The beach is one of my all time favorite places to go. The feel of the sun on your skin, the sound of the waves and sometimes the good company of your friends make it my ideal place to go when I need to clear my mind or when I want to do something fun. Especially living on such a tropical location like the island of Puerto Rico, who wouldn’t love the beach! Now to answer another question, why the sunset? Because there were other pictures of the beach, but what caught my eye most of this one was the sun setting on the beach. I could say how beautiful that scene looks when you’re gazing out onto the horizon, how it puts you in a state of peace and makes you think about pleasant things. Also it is a pretty romantic setting, if you ask me. It’s a place and an occasion you can imagine yourself sharing with that special someone … Ahh! J Another this is that my family and I are always taking little trips to the west coast of the island, like for example, Cabo Rojo, Aguadilla, Rincon etc. I guess you could say that my love for the beach has been because of these mini vacations. I can wake up at 9am and just see myself on the beach till the sun comes down.
“As I was looking out onto that gorgeous sunset at the beach, I started thinking about how much I miss him. I had come to the beach to be at peace, not to rehash old feelings. But upon seeing that romantic setting I couldn’t help but go back in my mind to that man that stole my heart once. Even though I was enjoying myself with my family on our mini vacation and I hadn’t thought about him all day, as soon as that sun set in that water … The memories came flowing in. “
- It’s not a full story but it could develop into one … I don’t know I just started writing and it came to me.
This picture has reminded me of the great times I have spent with friends and family at the beach till the sun came down. And it has made me want to research other locations I have not visited in this island. Go on road trips with friends and discover where other beautiful beaches might be in Puerto Rico. See if by doing a little bit more of research I could find a setting that can surpass my favorite one … Culebra!
