This sunset at Folly Beach, South Carolina, captured in 2018, is a true symbol of hope. How could anyone not believe in heaven after witnessing such beauty? It was a good day.

I was in Charleston, working on training for a new job, but I decided to take the evening for myself. I drove to the beach, and on my way back over the bridge, I caught this stunning view.

At the time, 2018 marked three years into my battle with Myositis, and this moment felt like a reminder that there’s always light, even in the hardest times.

Folly Beach is just a 30-minute to an hour drive from downtown Charleston, depending on traffic. It’s a perfect spot to unwind and enjoy the delicious food in this historic city.

Nearby, you’ll find Seabrook and Isle of Palms beaches, but my personal favorite is Edisto Beach.

Charleston has long been known for its rich history, with landmarks like Fort Sumter, the USS Yorktown, and its beautiful plantations. But in recent years, it has also become a popular destination for weddings and bachelorette parties.

Whether you’re visiting for the history, the beaches, or the vibrant atmosphere, Charleston is a place that offers something special for everyone. It’s a city that invites you to slow down, explore, and create lasting memories.
