I stand on the sandy beach
Looking out over the sea
Wondering what is ahead.
The waves come in towards me,
The white caps of beauty
Showing me a new day in my life,
They fall back taking yesterday with them.
I look out further
At so many waves coming my way,
Knowing that there are many days to come,
To come in my life.
But looking further
There are so many more waves,
Showing that more days have passed,
Passed in my life
Than I have remaining.
But trying to count the incoming waves
Is impossible, showing so many good days ahead,
Good days in my future life.

I love the metaphor here Andy. And may those days yet to come bring you all the joy your heart can hold. 😉
Thank you AP. I am sure all the many, many days I have to come will all bring me Joy.
