I walked far down the beach, soothed by the rhythm of the waves, the sun on my bare back and legs, the wind and spray from the mist on my hair...
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Quote from one of my all-time favorite little books--Gift from the Sea--a book by Anne Morrow Lindbergh first published in 1955.
While on vacation on Florida's Captiva Island in the early 1950s, Lindbergh wrote this essay-style work taking shells on the beach for inspiration, and reflecting on the lives of Americans, particularly American women, in the mid-twentieth century. She shares her meditations on youth and age; love and marriage; peace, solitude and contentment during her visit.
