Unique like us

I've discovered lots of beautiful things here in Jervis Bay, Australia. Seeing myriad seashells on these white sandy beaches, it occurred to me that the beaches themselves represent millions of years of shells being pulverized by the surf and one another. And yet individual seashells are still here. Ribbed white clamshells and spiral shaped nautiluses and multicolored keyhole shells. Millions of shells in every shape, size, color, and texture. Whole shells and broken shells. Each one unique. And beautiful. Like us.
