The author finds the beach to be the ultimate place to escape the pressures of life. When at the beach, all of their obligations are erased as they walk along the soft sand, listen to the soothing sounds of the ocean, and bask in the sun's rays. After swimming in the refreshing ocean water, the author takes a peaceful nap on the beach. They are awakened by birds as the sun sets, painting the sky with beautiful colors. Though obligations await the next day, the author is not upset, viewing it instead as a countdown until they can return to the beach to find relief once more.
