Come On In.....

Hubs & I spent the last 3 days in the beautiful Carmel, here in California,
relaxing on the beach,
overeating at amazing restaurants,
exploring the curvy roads of the gorgeous residential areas
and hoarding all the yummy croissants 
at the B&B Breakfast Counter!

What is it about staring at the ocean?
The biggness, the vastness,
 the beauty that needs no man made assistance?

It is so calming & invigorating at the same time.
It felt so good to be away from it all,
to know that the "stuff" still exists
but you don't need to talk or think about it for a few hours.

This wonderful door was just an ordinary yard entrance
for Carmel-ites.
But for me it spoke to me about
choosing to enter the door of peace, 
rest & trust.

That is where I want to live.
