Interview With A Grain of Sand

Me: How did you start out?
Sand: I was born a rock. About 5 inches round and weighting
about a six pounds.

 
Me: Now did you become just a tiny grain of sand?
How did you get so small?
Sand: I have been in this huge ocean for many years.                                
The mighty waves have rubbed me down to my small size.

 
Me: How has your size changed you?
Sand: As a rock I could see more of life. As a tiny grain of sand,                        
I feel my life could be over soon.

 
Me: How do you like being on the beach?
Sand: I can feel the warm sun. I love the cool water licking
all over me. Sometimes people step on me.

 
Me: Does it hurt when people step on you?
Sand: No more. I have gotten use to it.

 
Me: Thank You for the interview. I wish you good luck.
Sand: I enjoyed talking with some who cares about me.                                     I also wish you good luck.
