Whether sunbathing, sandcastle building, or just strolling down the beach, there is sand everywhere! And when you return home after your day at the beach, there is sand everywhere too, in the car, in swimsuit pockets, in the kids hair, and every other place imaginable. The grains of sand everywhere are a small annoyance compared to the great blessing of being at the beach and enjoying the sand at the seashore or the sand at the lakeshore. Whether it is my family's favorite ocean beach in South Carolina or our favorite lake beach in the Adirondack Mountains, we love walking on beach sand. So, whatever sand you are walking on, laying on, or playing with, take some time to meditate upon sand this summer.
