As usual... I'm not quite sure where to begin.... as I find coming home to report.. and post photos daunting..
I suppose for me the place that's always best to begin is from the heart..... as it's because my heart wasn't beating the way it normally was.. that caused me to take off rather suddenly...
I had been having a bad few months.. several things that caused sadness.. lots of changes... things throwing me off balance.... even medical issues not helping the daily stuff that can cause strife...
days were hard for me.. sometimes.. I had a hard time finding and keeping my footing.... I felt so indecisive... not able to trust choices.. direction..... actually not knowing which direction to go.... what path belonged to me....
Some days just felt bland.. my heart hurt.. from not feeling settled.. my head was down... because I did not feel like me.... I felt like life was changing all around me..... people seemed so certain and sure of their direction... station in life..... and yet I felt like a top spinning.....
Now I know this is not true.. but it's how I felt... lost.. confused.. sad... tears streaming down my fast daily...anxious.... one moment up.. the next down......
Then a friend said to me... "Nina.. go take some photos".... and another suggested I come to Jamaica......
So on a moments notice.. I booked.. and secretly took off to Jamaica.. barely telling a soul... and some surprised I had left without letting them know........ even my son who is in England... I kept in the dark......
So... i left.. for 6 days..... and what will follow.. is Nina's standard..... photos from the country mostly.. people.. signs... moments.. kids.. church ladies.. landscape...
And BEST of all..... G2's hometown.......I purposely went there... for her.. and got out and walked.. and took tons of photos.....
Hope some of what follows will heal your heart as it did mine..
