Photos of my day...
I had the perfect playlist...I was at the beach from around 11 am...grabbed a $250J box lunch near there and had a good time walking around the small town that is Belmont...I was only approached a few times and in a much different way than "higglers"...
As I sat there, I listened to songs that have reminded me of the past times I had. So many times I've come close to getting over the hump...we had soo mannnnyyy plans! I am in a great mood, not trying to be a negative Nancy...but to have had sarah here would have been great.
What I love most about this board is the shared experience...whether its a trip report from the Jungle or Belmont...what I saw today...a community...it is place where I could truly reflect...Sarah would definitely want me to be happy...and if their was a sunset like this in the world to see I needed to see it. Everything went right today...and because of that I spent 8 hours on the beach! And I thought a lot.
My plans in life have changed, I've been married for 15 years and divorced...my sons have grown to ages 17 and 15. As a single Dad, I had a lonely period for a few years AFTER my divorce before I found "the one"...Sarah...for so many of you who are in love please try to take me seriously...enjoy it. It doesn't come around often. She had a tough life but I was willing to fight it with her. Neither of us had any idea she would leave so soon...or had our last goodbye.
So all day I considered how much better of a man I am for meeting her, and thanking the sun and sky and the ocean for putting their best face on today. I feel blessed.
Today, right before sunset, I pretended for a minute that I could talk to Sarah. And I told her I loved her and she said we'll see each other again...the stuff of bad romance novels? Maybe. But I needed to at least get a few things off my chest. And I think I'm good...I think I'm ready to get back to the bustle of Negril...I think I'm ready to use today as the day i did my best to "let Sarah know"...that I'll never forget her but life moves on.
................Always...........
