Be Prepared

An empty lifeguard tower stands vigilant against the endless sea, its silhouette stark against the sky. The photograph captures the loneliness of readiness—the way it waits for a moment that may never come. The shuttered windows and silent beach evoke a sense of anticipation, where the calm before the storm hangs heavy in the air. It is a reminder that in the face of life’s uncertainties, preparation is a form of strength, a quiet determination to stand firm against whatever waves may rise. Here, the tower becomes a symbol of resilience, a guardian of the coast, watching over the changing tides.
