Given how fervently people avoid the topic of death (I should know 😆), this is a beautiful piece of writing that doesn’t make the contemplation bleak and unbearable. And a great reminder to take a Beaches day without a special cause.

For me, Beaches = PNW

Also, fantastic photo!

This piece hit me kind of hard. Don’t really know why .. maybe because I am in winter of my life and I haven’t stopped to think about this. On one hand, I was so thrilled and happy for you that you have your Beaches. You so deserve every minute of it. Such a peaceful place to be. On the reflective side, I couldn’t think of what my Beaches is. So now I’m thinking about that. You are an amazing writer Angela to inspire such deep thought in us.

Daniel, thank you for letting me know. Are you trying to play it in the app from a phone or laptop?
