"Not a day goes by that I don't take a walk on the beach.

The beach is truly home, its broad expanse of sand as welcoming as a mother's open arms. What's more, this landscape, which extends as far as the eye can see, always reminds me of possibility. It is here that I can listen to my inner voice, shed inhibitions, move to the rhythm of the waves, and ask the universe unanswerable questions."

Joan Anderson A Walk on The Beach, Broadway Books, 2004.
