The good old I-Like-Ike days, after the (World) war and before the (Vietnam) war. I started to read. At first, it seemed similar to Walden--all about simplicity, only in this case a well-to-do suburbanite woman on an unnamed beach vs. a middle-aged man slash pencil maker on a pond named Walden. One cannot collect all the beautiful shells on the beach. One can only collect a few. One moon shell is more impressive than three. There is only one moon in the sky.” Best Sea Glass Collecting Gifts, If You Wanted Me To Listen, You Should Have Talked About Sea., Cute Holiday Shot Glass From FriendsI cannot express with her ability her philosophical views on life and marriage. They are amazingly relevant still today. This is one of those books I’d heard about and seen on countless shelves, especially in, predictably enough, beach cottages.

I also really liked how she described the different stages of marriage. My favorite quote from this read-through was: It’s basically about taking time outs from your life to find your “center”, living with less stuff and fewer distractions and experiencing relationships in the present rather than dwelling on how great they were in the past or worrying about what may happen in the future. All sound advice, if you ask me. As a male, I recommend this book to both men and women with the suggestion that oftentimes women are better at sharing their heart than are men.

A variety of colorful and gracefully designed shells speak different messages to her soul. And she shares those musings with the readers. When I wrote Gift from the Sea, I was still in the stage of life called "the oyster bed," symbol of a spreading family and growing children. The oyster bed, as the tide of life ebbed and the children went away to school, college, marriage, or careers, was left high and dry. A most uncomfortable stage followed, not sufficiently anticipated and barely hinted at in any book. In bleak honesty it can only be called 'the abandoned shell." Plenty of solitude, and a sudden panic at how to fill it, characterize this period. With me, it was not a question of simply filling up the space or the time. I had many activities and even a well-established vocation to pursue. But when a mother is left, the lone hub of a wheel, with no other lives revolving around her, she faces total re-orientation. It takes time to re-find the center of gravity."
