"It was a wildly beautiful, yet desolate place. The wind was relentless as it battered the beach. I let it punish my hair and scour my mind, as I stood there, shirt billowing like a parachute, eyes scrunched to narrow slits against the grit the wind flung in my face. It was a timeless scene: the long line of waves rolling in and pummeling the shore as it had done for thousands of years. Momentarily, I felt a brief frisson as my mind tried to come to terms with the passage of millenia."
