Just Ponder buddies...

It is just two basic things I want you to ponder about:
1)Why a guy like me was there?
2)Why were you not there?

It was 5:30 pm in the evening on the day dated 29th august 2010 in New Jersey, USA. I went to Sandy Hook beach. The weather was awesome though it was a little bit cloudy but the sun was shinning brightly. The water was cool and the closer one approaches the ocean the better it feels on the sand. Some life guards were there on chairs keeping an eye on the swimmers.

Apart from the life guards the beach was practically deserted for me. I mean I have nothing to see, no humans to gaze at, no characters to study, no individuals to interact with and practically for me it was a beach without a soul.

There were noises and chattering from all around. Some screams some joyous exclamations and splashing of water. Talks and calls were there. Some time later even the whistle blown by life guard to warn someone going deep into waters.

I can hear many things but still unable to find solace for eyes to gaze at something. I folded my trousers a little from the bottom and step foot into the Great Atlantic Ocean. I saw a basket with some shells in it. The water was very soothing so I stood there for some time but still unable to soothe my eyes with something interesting.

I came out of water and cleaned my feet and relaxed a bit on the sand. But I could only hear voices as nothing to gaze at. My eyes pondered from places to places to rest on something and my situation was exactly the same as of your current state of mind. You must be thinking that whether I went to some kind of "Ghost Beach" or am I becoming insane in the new city or was the beach itself is marooned.

Impractically being practical it was just none of the three. Americans spend very little on clothing that's why they are affluent and Indians spend much on clothing so we are still poor. Hope your pondering mind stopped wandering so just stop floundering. I couldn't find anything soothing to my eyes and my only relief was the sky. Hope you could rest your eyes on something.......:D :D
