Have you ever seen the gift in the beauty God gives us everyday? ::the present:: sunshine or rain, it's all heaven sent. Boracay is beyond a describable beauty. Mother nature continuously surrounds you in her state of grace::
She has no mercy, she shows herself boldly everyday and kisses you all over willingly or not -Alle
OMG so I had a chance to walk on the ocean floor. Never in a million ddrreeaamms would I have thought I'd walk on the oceans floor and feed her multifaceted creations from my hands. I could only marvel at what seemed like aqua air all around me.
When I began exploring, suddenly my mind FROZE! The fear of the unknown stopped me dead in my tracks. The horrid imagines of me falling to my demise stuck in my mind! Besides the obvious fear of a shark coming to KILL ME, I imagined myself somehow floating into the abyss, separated from my instructor (whom might I add was very cute) and unable to reach the surface again!!!!!!
The beautiful tropical colors of a countless number of fish recaptured my attention, not to mention Brooks return to the surface on more than one occasion. LOL She was having a hard time. Visiting Gods creations under the sea is...is..an adrenaline rush and highly recommended for lovers of all things beautiful.
We also went ATVing to the highest point of the island. I wanted to go really fast but we had to follow the guide and hes no speed demon. Before we left we geared up and listen to the guide explain what to do what not to do ...blah blah blah...I was thinking to myself "yeah yeah just give me the key so I can tare this island up buddy." ;-) It took about 30 minutes to reach the top of the mountain and a five minute hike to its peak. One look and I was in awe...........
....no words can explain you have to see it for yourself in person! We also saw some poor little monkeys being held captive for tourist entertainment, a few snakes and other wild animals. After ATVing we took a walk on the world renowned "White Beach" Classic....
I intentionally planned my trip to the tropical island on Valentines Day as a way to remind myself of how important it is to love ME first. I learned the lesson of:: getting so lost in someone else that you lose yourself:: the hard way. I now realize just how vital it is to value myself."Getting so lost in someone else that you lose yourself"
During my flight back to reality I reflected on life, I'll give you a sneak peak into my personal journal. Consider yourself special!
Be you, follow your hearts desires, don't be conformed to the humdrum bores, norms and expectations of this world. So often we find ourselves persuaded based on societal norms. Don't get lost in it, get lost in you. Things fall apart but we must recognize those fails build our character. I call it character building. Mistakes are lessons not learned. It's not wrong to journey and get lost, life happens.
Travel see the world, it has so much to offer. It gives you what you give it. It's honest, willing to stand naked in it's truth, sharing it's joy and pain and open for you to discover. -xoxo Alle
You write so beautifully Miss Alle.
ReplyDeleteI knew you were insightful but damn you really are full of inspirational words.
I need to be reminded every now & then about why I do what I do or else I lose the plot.
Thank you for sharing.
