The Rich Man and The Beach -

The Rich Man and The Beach - Sua Kim (Oxford Academy, Seventh Grade)

A rich man lived in a large beach house with his wife and two children. One tragic day, his family perished in a car accident. Months later, the man dreamed that his wife and children were walking along the beach, but the beach was different. 

The waves were translucent, shining in the sun. The sunset was bright and beautiful, with pink and purple cotton candy clouds lining the sky. The sand was pale, and felt warm under the man’s feet. He ran over and embraced them. 

The man woke up. He felt fresh and free of his grief, knowing that his family was happy in heaven, and that one day, he would join them. He donated his house to an orphanage. When he died, he finally reunited with his beloved family, after a long, happy life filled with good deeds.
