He sat there. Heartbroken. Hurting.

The waves crashed on the shore…mirroring how he felt inside.

Could life seem so bleak at 15?

And there she was. On the horizon. Her friendly face glowing. Her body glistening.

She playfully splashed in the water. Beckoning him

He ventured in the water….just a little bit. Her calls seemed to draw him in.

Did the water seem  a little more blue? The horizon a little more clear?

He began noticing the people on the beach. Kids playing.  Building sandcastles.

The sun shined brightly. Did it seem to have just a little more shine?

He should give her a name. This grand glorious creature.

This beautiful dolphin.

Perhaps this was the beginning of healing….
