Coffee at the beach

Today I am enjoying my coffee whilst gazing out at the calm blue waters of the Atlantic Ocean. It is a beautiful, sunny morning and the sleepy little beach town has yet to wake up. With envy, I watch the charter boat captains navigating their fishing boats past the jetty en route to their favorite fishing spots in search of haddock, cod and flounder. A treasure hunter walks by me wielding his metal detector up and down the beach looking for lost gold and silver.

My treasure lies in this moment of appreciation.
