The Sweet Spot
On Tuesday nights, my man and I share a sweet spot. We grab our chairs and sit for a spell on a park bridge overlooking an inlet. The waves quiet my soul, and a lighthouse serves as a backdrop for birds flittering by and boats skipping on the water.
We don’t say much. We hold hands. We follow the path of a pelican as it hunts after fish, and we laugh as the wind blows my hair all topsy-turvy.
On days when life crashes in, this view breathes life into our weary souls.

love this … yep, the beach is our sweet spot … water, waves, whatever, whenever. we are THERE, my friend!
Staring out over the vast ocean reminds me of God — I can never quiet get to the depths of Him…
Our special places are walking in our garden and walking at the beach. Lovely thoughts and picture you posted, Lyli.

Thank you, Wendy! Gardens are magical places — we have several historical homes here in South Florida with lovely gardens. I need to re-visit some of those sweet spots soon. Thanks for the reminder. 🙂
Lovely thoughts! We don’t live close to the beach. I would enjoy sitting out and watching the sunset over the water and listening to the waves lap up onto the sandy beach in the evenings! Another place we enjoy is the mountains! God majesty shines brightly with beautiful views, waterfalls, and gorgeous landscapes! We are headed up there this weekend! Can’t wait! Ready for a quiet break from this crazy world!
Enjoy your mountains this weekend, Bonnie! My sister in law lives in North Carolina, and we enjoy visiting her beautiful home, especially in fall.
Enjoyed this.
Thanks for stopping by! 🙂
I have to say that my sweet spot also is the beach! That is cool that you and your hubby have that to enjoy.
I look forward to other FMF postings and in between as well. Patti
Patti, so nice to connect with you. I have only done FMF twice, but today’s prompt definitely grabbed me. 🙂
Fantastic! Having a sweet spot is so very important – especially with your significant other, your spouse. Thank you for sharing this sweet moment in your week with us.
Thanks, Debi. We started doing this a few weeks ago. It has made such a difference in our week. 🙂
