“Beach Day” by Brandon Schall

I was at the beach last week with my friends enjoying the environment. My goal was to enjoy the earth. I feel that many people today don’t stop and take some time to enjoy the earth as the ancient cultures used to because they depended on nature for survival. People used the rivers and the oceans to go to different places. They also used it to clean themselves and to fish for food. Today we go there to swim, play football and get a tan. Things are much different in today’s world. Technology has hindered modern people’s wants and needs and prevented us from fully enjoying the earth’s oceans. I sometimes wish we could go back to the old days and rely more on the earth’s oceans. Since we cannot go back to a time in which this happened, I plan on going to the ocean as much as I can to enjoy the ocean.
