Only a spot on a Map

So just a few days ago i recieved my site assignment...
I cannot tell you the rush of emotions that ran through me.
Its only a mere spot on a map. But i am on my way in a few hours to meet my family and community where i will live and work for the next two years of my life.

Its a small community on Banana Plantations on the Caribean Coast.
Influenced by the AfroCaribenan Culture.
And for now this is all i know.

So many unknowns.
Much love.

Finding JOy

I find myself discovering true JOY.
I find myself like a child again. A free spirit, bathing in all that is beautiful.
The river. The ocean. The sunset. The trees.
I find myself in these things.
I find myself in expression, in art, nature and color.
I find myself on the shores of the beach captivated by the radiance of Gods creation. It overflows from my body into an insane freeflowing expression.
I dance.
You wanna talk about interpretive dance. I think im refining my expertise.
Im like a child again, regaining joy and bathing in it.

For now i will continue to live. To not contain the beauty of expression.
To rejoice in what is beautiful.
To live.

Fun in the Sun
