Wow Clarity you have me crying at work soooooo happy for you. Sorry about your brothers passing he is the one guiding you.
This is the most amazing story! And "paul" is handsome and has the same kind character as you, for real , when you first told me of this story it haunted me the rest of the trip about how the universe worked and there are " god whispers everywhere in our lives" we just need to be tuned into them to recognize the blessings we are given when they happen, I totaly believe this was a blessed spirit giding you thru this that will forever change the way you look at everything, god bless you Daisy for sharing..I still have goose bumps..
OKay I'm at work and my wife told me about the addition to the trip report. After the Phone call part I'm tearing up and I got all warm and goose bumpy. Now my co workers will think I'm crazy but thats not far form the truth so...
In the end it is only the one life, at the one moment that will matter.

This is the second (or third) time you have made me cry at work!!! This is amazing stuff...can't wait for the next part.
Ok...so I see the trend of folks crying at work over this report...so I had to follow suit. Yes, actual tears in my eyes while I am helping people with their car insurance claims! This is nothing but the Lord, people are put in certain places at certain times just for this type of result. People you come into contact w/ are for a reason, a season, or a lifetime. Whatever it may be, everything happens for a reason. Most of the times we experience these types of things in our lives but cant really verbalize it or explain it to others,it's just an experience we have. But for Clarity to be able to share this with us is priceless. By FAR the best trip report EVER! This type of stuff just fills my heart with joy and happiness! I am just so happy that this happened to you Clarity. The universe gives to you what you put out and Clarity and Hubbyman, you guys seem to be great people and it's evident that you were both were blessed to have found each other in this world, and to have a partner to go on your lifes journey with. Much continued blessing to you both. Keep doing what you are doing in this life. You guys have great energy. Thanks for sharing with us!! Ok my eyes are now dry, now I am just stuck w/ this happy grin, thanks again!!
Oh man.....this is like when your favorite tv show ends the season on a serious cliff hanger and you think to yourself, there is no way I can go all summer without knowing what happens next!
I read and then re-read your last post, and each time it made me (as Raul put it) all tingly inside!
I can't wait for the next post....I am trying to wait patiently, but I am failing. I have been refreshing the page each time secretly wishing and hoping to see the next update. I want to know! I want to read! Did you meet Paul? How did it go?
Oh my gosh, the excitement and anticipation is killing me!!!!!!!
LOL
Thanks everyone for your kind and caring feedback. I really do believe that my brother is still still here with me guiding the way. The experiences I've had in Jamaica, particularly on this last stretch really cemented that feeling in my heart. Every trip I've taken to Jamaica has been in celebration of his life and his memory.
Finding my family on this trip was extremely life changing for me. I didn't know much about my father's side of the family. I'm estranged from my grandfather, My grandmother passed away before I was born and my father's brother died three years ago.
I don't want to get sappy but It really means a lot to read such caring comments and having others to share this experience with. Many of you came along for our first trip, so you know my background and how huge this is for me. Thank you for being there.
Marley - Lol! I'm sorry for leaving off in a cliff hanger. I haven't had much time to update this weekend. Markus and Jamar are going to write about Mayfield falls tonight though. So Stay tuned
and yes, I did get to actually meet my cousin that night when we returned

Carpe Diem
This is really the BEST trip report I've ever read....both you & Marcus seem to know how to make us really "know" you, inside & out. It is also such a pleasure to have Jamar join in the report this time to give us yet another perspective.
You are a real LADY & behave accordingly....my respect. I am so happy for you that you located your long lost family....felt the goosebumps on that one too....Thanks so much to you all for providing such touching moments from your heart.
Okay guys, new update coming.
