Dolphins, Getting personal
Ok people, A bit of a confession. I was not born a yard. I moved here many moons ago from a land far far away, a land of snow and cold. A land where you could not walk around in slippers all day. A land where your best friend was either your significant other or a heating blanket. A land where you wanted to have the dog on the bed as it helped keep you warm. When I first moved here I was like nearly everyone else. I was in awe of what I saw. I loved the nature and loved the whole concept of island life. Soon it started to wear on me though. I wanted more. I was tired of just seeing the mongoose running around. I was tired of just hearing the parrots in the trees or the tree frogs making their noises. I wanted more. Then I learned to sail. I started to have fun, it opened a new world for me. I learned to appreciate nature more. Then I saw it. A sea turtle in the water. What a site. I learned to slow down and appreciate things more. The turtle did that for me. Another day we were greeted by dolphins, seeing a dolphin at sea is a great experience. It was like their energy feed me. I learned to look for them. Alas sightings at sea in Jamaica although fairly common are not a daily thing. However I am blessed. I get to work with Dolphin Cove Jamaica and I see them every day. Why not join me sometime.
