a couple months has passed by and life is better.
I drive out to the beach just because I can. The music blasts through the stereo as I enjoy the summer breeze with my windows rolled down. A coffee in the cupholder and a few books on the passenger seat. Cooper is in the backseat with his nose out of the window.
Finally a peace of mind.
I park my car near the beach because I want to walk with Coop for a bit. I grab my keys, my coffee and my books. My phone stays behind.
I take my slippers off and pick them up with my free hand. The sand between my toes feels like freedom. I can fully let myself enjoy the view in front of me. There is a slight breeze so the waves aren't crashing but they are just flowing peacefully. I walked for a bit before I saw a spot in the shadow. I take my sunglasses off and let myself down on the sand.
Isn't it crazy that I can enjoy this now? That I let myself enjoy the beach, enjoy the coffee, not paying attention on what I put into my body. The day when you reach this point after a long dark time, that is the day that the healing process starts to begin.
Coop is enjoying the beach as well, he really likes the water and he can run here all that he wants.
I look in front of me and all that I can see is the ocean waves and one crazy dog running all over the place, it makes me extremely happy.
I take a sip of my coffee and all that runs through my head is utterly peace.
And maybe after all, I will be okay.
