What I adore about travel are all the moments we get to
have.
To live
To appreciate.
Time of travel is different. The clocks ticks to a
different beat it seems. Energy is spent in different ways. Naps are needed and
taken. Everyday there is time to do what your body wants to do and needs.
Everyday there is time to dream and think and believe.
Every day is perfect on vacation it seems if you let it
be.
Today was no different. There were some cool moments. The
dolphin romping around the sail boat for 5 minutes. Diving in and out of the
water and swirling around the boat (that I missed as I decided to forgo the
sail with Hubby crazy me!!!)
The huge wedding in front of our eyes and the rain that
almost ruined it and the sun that saved it at the last moment.
The deepest prettiest color purple of the bridesmaids
dresses that I captured in my heart for Beauty one day?
The book. Oh the book. That one I wanted to steal? I got up
the courage to ask the girl for it….she was leaving and she said yes! Yay! This
couple struck me on many levels..the way they took care of their little kids so
much like us when ours where little on vacation-the schedules naps, the alone
time, the lunches at the pool under the umbrella. I noticed them because they
stood out…both man and woman the same height…almost exactly..The way they described
how important it felt for them to travel.
The book I am reading about travel and wanderlust moments
The other book I am reading about friendship which
articulated to me in every shape and form my thoughts about one of my own friendships.
The pink and gold sky over and over
Vacation should be mandatory for the soul. No beach
needed. No fancy hotel.
Required:
: Rest, relaxation, being unplugged and someone caring
and loving to watch the children. That is all that is needed for nourishment
even once a year.
I can also feel myself restless on vacation too at moments.
So unused to the downtime…until my body adjusts and readjusts and craves the
time in front of it instead of fearing it.
Moments…so precious when we allow them in.
