One by one, the waves of the Atlantic Ocean crash against the rocks.
Hours ago, I walked away from my job after twelve years. It was my first job out of college. It was all I knew but it was killing me. I sacrificed so much of myself, my time.
My life.
I lean back on the sand, arms behind my head. Close my eyes. The ocean lulls me, seagulls’ squawks make me smile as droplets of saltwater carried by a tepid breeze dance across my face.
Peace washes over me.
I made the right decision. I know I did.
Note: I am doing a personal challenge to grow consistent in my writing by committing to writing 100 stories in 100 days only using 100 words (or less).
