Snippets of me... Jamaica

     It's morning here. I don't have an idea of what time it is right now. At home I have a built in alarm clock that normally wakes me up everyday at 3 am. The sun here has not risen yet. The sky is dark blue right now. It looks as if could still be night time. The view though from my patio is exquisite. The panoramic view of Jamaica's beach and palm trees are staring boldly in my face, with not enough words for me to explain this utterly beautiful scenery!
     Sitting here in the chair with my gown, robe, and slippers on, lounging with my feet propped up on the other chair. The tropical birds sound different. They don't chirp and sound like the birds in California. They sound exotic. I inhale the warm humid air. It smells like ocean water. So far since I've been sitting out here I have only seen employees walking around the premises making preparations to the resort. It seems like they're working, maintaining the resort's upkeep, so it continues to remain immaculate for the residents staying here.
     I can definitely see myself making this an annual vacation spot. For anyone that has not been to Jamaica, I recommend every one should go at least one time in their life. Not because it's a beautiful amazing place to vacation, but to have the experience under their belt. There's so much knowledge, history, and culture in Jamaica. Everyone seems to have a genuine soul here, I mean everyone.
     The plane ride here was long. I felt anxious inside, but humble. I feel that every one I came encounter with prior to my arrival here, was merely preparation and a part of God's plan. I'm here in Jamaica because I'm supposed to be here. God would't have had it any other way, or at least that's how I feel about my presence here. Everything in life happens for a reason. I've met some pretty amazing people on my journey here so far.
     I feel good all over. I've been smoking by myself, reflecting, and writing since I've been out here on the patio. With each exhale that follows my inhale, I like to think that I'm blowing out all of yesterday's bullshit. There is no need to hold on to life's problems, shit blow them out and breathe. I wish that I could apply that advice to my life when I'm at home. Breath and live your life the way that God has intended for you to live. I'm still learning, but with each experience, I've grown. I'm still growing. I'm blowing out the negativity that was never meant to enter my body in the first place. During my period of growth, my life is going through a metamorphosis. I am a caterpillar forming into a butterfly.
     With my current fascination of this beautiful view, my love for this peaceful moment, I can't think of any troubles I may be having back home. I left them at home in California.
     The sky is finally lighting up. The sun is slowly rising on the ocean's water. I feel a sense of calmness here. The reflection of the sun is orange on top of the blue water. My view is mesmerizing. I'm in tropical bliss. The clouds float by, each with it's own unique shape and size. Although it's brighter outside, I still don't know what time it is. Hell, I don't know what my face is looking like either. I didn't wash off my mascara and eyeliner before I went to sleep. Last night my main goal was getting under the covers and successfully closing my eyes.
     I'm not sure what plans we have in store for today because we barely touched down yesterday evening. All that I know is I am determined to make the best of this experience. So far I am loving it here. So with that being said enjoy every moment in life whether it is good or bad. Learn from each experience and continue to grow. Step out on faith and remain optimistic. Life is not always gonna be easy however I

am focused and determined to lead a joyous life. These are snippets of me... Ms. Johnson's universe while in Jamaica.
