It’s been a tough year for many of us. We’ve had to be resilient. That is the theme of this week’s Weekly Photo Challenge – resilient. To me, nothing is more resilient than the ocean. Resilient is defined as recovering to its original form easily and quickly. What could be more resilient than the ocean? If we have to be, we can be resilient again, like the ocean, in 2017.
This is Ft. Myers Beach, Florida in the United States at the end of the day.
Happy New Year, everyone!
“Patrick!” Rebecca cried. “What a wonderful thing to do! Look at that beautiful tray of food.”
“It’s the least I could do for us tonight. You had a long day of shopping. I had a long day exploring London.”
Rebecca and Patrick were on their way back to the States after a month in Europe. It was the first time they had been there together. They explored France and then took the train to Switzerland where Patrick had business. They had just finished a day in London. They were staying a wonderful old hotel in Trafalgar Square.
Patrick was ready to have a break from Rebecca, but she didn’t know that. She thought he would miss her as she would him. She also didn’t know he was visiting another woman today in London while she was out shopping.
They drank the wine and ate the lovely Stilton cheese from the tray, saving some of each for later. Then they took a late night walk in the Square. London was beautiful by night. It was a night Rebecca would never forget.
She cried when they parted the next day. By the time Patrick boarded his plane, he had already forgotten her.
