Stories Of Negril and the Westend

[Sweetness]

I dreamt of Jamaica for 15 years - I knew I was meant to go...its in my journal way back when - it was calling. First went with friend and her Mom and Sis for just 3-4 days. My senses were overwhelmed the ENTIRE time in every way. The amazing beauty of the lush mountains, clear wata, gorgeous men (I mean people lol), freed my spirit but staying on the beach was overwhelming in a different way. Stayed at BarBBarn and loved it and after all these years still my home base. Over before I knew it and still tears when leaving....I didn't really know why....again that feeling of freedom until the moment the plane took off.

Gotta go back and want to try solo and stay longer. Bob at negrilonestop.com talked with me on the phone and told me about a little place on the cliffs (?) called Heartbeat - nothing fancy but I trusted him and tried it. It became the launching pad for my soul. Not necessarily the place but it gave me the right everything for all I needed. Went for a week, then for a month, then worked for a year 3 jobs to save enough for four months of freedom and it was life changing. I learned so much about myself and made friends that I still have today. They taught me so much about life, love and true peace. I will be eternally grateful. I knew nothing of West End but it became my neighborhood and people call to me as I walk and children run to me and jump in my arms and I still feel the magic there. I became addicted to staring at the sea off the cliffs, watching and talking with the fisherman, sunrises/sunsets, in awe of the beauty and we are but a drop in the sea. I never tire of it and the peace I feel staying on the cliffs is something I am not sure I have ever felt in my life.....safe, free, closer to God. Heartbeat is gone but I am still connected to West End and still can't get enough of staring at the sea there.

I still love the beach, the soft sand, standing in the wata blue below - blue above - every shade imaginable. I spread my arms wide, palms up giving thanks to the universe and receiving the flow of blessings. Lots of stories I can share but my personal experience is one that brings me so much joy to share. I feel it but seldom get to explain my journey. I will always love Negril, it will always feel like home because my heart is open there. Thanks for asking the question - 37 sleeps until bliss.
