Today, I felt something I haven't experienced. I let sorrow go. And I realized I was as solitary as I've always been used to being. And I went swimming at the beach because there were a few birthdays at Brewer's Bay. I met up with my homeboy D* and I also was able to finally change my head enough to experience something of my own. I went into the warm, turquoise aqua water to swim. I stayed under really warm welcoming water for quite some time. It was one of the hottest days here. This was a very natural and magical moment that happened for me because for all the things I thought and felt realizing where I am here and now... Something happened...
I was up to my shoulders and out on my own. In the waters of the Caribbean shore, there came a fleet of beautiful birds that flew above me and around me. I felt every element, intuition, and energy that was very earthly and personal. These beautiful birds kept flying around me in circles while I was at a comfortable place in my own mind (finally) as I was up to my shoulders in these warm island waters. I looked into the horizon and I noticed that it all hit me. Paradise, solitude, thoughts long ago that somehow became true for me at this new age now... I got very caught in this moment. I was by myself and every once in a while, there was thoughts in the back of my mind about how it would be if I was with a friend... But I had to implement a higher reason or attitude than to dwell on what wasn't present. I realized for myself that I came to a place in the world that is very happy for me even being here. It dawned on me that it was only when I was 23 how I hoped for such things. And that it somehow hit me, as I was living in the present time that was once a future wish. I was very dumb-founded. I couldn't see how it could all be so real.
Then I was interviewed shortly after because apparently, I am gonna be in the newspaper for the Virgin Islands.... I got so happy I almost cried maan...
