The Horizon — A Poignant Painting Of The Boundless Skies On Calm Sunny Day
Hello, Hivers. Allow me to share something about the nearby beach.
How magnificent is it to look at the horizon at the beach. It’s immeasurable grandeur has its way of granting us that wonderful feeling and it’s as if it talks to us individually . It carries a message that pacify our loud thoughts, encourages the heart to show up in spite of everything, and strengthens that weary body that has been fighting every day battles.
The chirping of the birds and flapping of their wings adds solemnity to the calmness as they fly. The elaborate cloud formations display their elegance like someone painted them one by one on that vast blue canvass — the sky.
Whether you’re just wanting for a slow morning stroll , doing your routine exercise ,or simply catching the gentle sea breeze , going to the beach has always something to offer. It invigorates us.
Visiting the beach during ebb tide is my favorite as it exposes the seabed.
It’s fascinating to see some crabs trying to hide as you pass . People living near the shore gather some edible seashell, seaweeds , and some crustaceans .
The sight of motorized boats ,cutting through the waves carry a lot of stories only courageous men can tell -their nets as strong as them brave the seas as they traverse the dark waters to catch the fresh seafoods. The boat’s crew will either sell them to individuals who will then sell to different households near the beach or bring them the fish market to gain a bigger profit. Despite the exhausting night, you can still see their faces beaming .
Humans are not the only ones anticipating their return the but also, the fury friends that we have at home - the cats. They can smell the bucket of fish carried by fishermen from afar. As soon as they hear the footsteps of these people towards their furparents’ house , their meows will fill the air as if shouting for joy . There were times I saw them begging the seller to give them some fish even before we get out of the house and approach the seller. I can guarantee that they would never quit until
they get what they want. They won’t take “No” for answer.
(Putol wakes up as soon as he smells fish 😆. )
The life near the beach has never been more exciting.

I get the same feeling when I am standing at the beach. Being near the sea recharges our bodies and relieves our stress. The sight of the boat reminds me of the challenges experienced by the fishermen. For the cats, eating fish is like daily dose of vitamins. How lucky for you to have an easy access to the beach as you can just go there anytime you want to.
Yes, indeed . Some of my cousins go at night during ebb tide to catch "kalintugas", a local name for an edible crustacean. I've never experienced "panulo', that's what it's called when you're catching crabs ; they fear that I might not be able to keep up with them, lose my way home, or drown when the high tide comes.
The sea was calm. Is this low tide? People are happy at the beach when it's low tide because they can find different kinds of Seafoods especially sea shells.
Yes, it is low tide, and you're right, Both children and adults enjoy this . I used to go with my cousins and there was a time when I tried fresh oysters straight from its shell .
Wow! Oysters are very tasty. I really like oysters but I've tried oysters once that was a year ago. It's difficult to find oysters here and if there is it's expensive

Cats really love fish. Lol. The beach isn't just beautiful but bountiful too! 🩷
You're absolutely right. There are times one of my cats hunted fish from the pond in the back of our house.

Thank you for taking a look at my post - it means a lot . I'll make sure to follow the community rules, post more valuable contents, and increase my engagement.
Thank you for presenting this wonderful beach with beautiful nature to us. I am very happy to see this wonderful coral view. I always believe in the thirst of an animal especially on this beach. Also, it was fun to visit you here and spend some aesthetic time with the beach. Yes, cats definitely like the smell of fish, which we have known since childhood. But fishermen love to hunt fish.
Thank you for stopping by. I will be posting more about them : the sunset , other sea animals like the sea anemone and many more. It's awesome to see those ; their mere existence give me this sense of hope that there's always something good.Are you near the beach?
