Thundering Breakers

We stood on the beaches of the Pacific Ocean below the coastal highway near Half Moon Bay watching the sea roll in on a wintry morning.  We were there for Patty's funeral.  The sea was enormous and seemed to echo the powerlessness and grief we were feeling that day. There are many things beyond our control.  We are but specks in the grand scheme of things.
