while in puerto rico i visited a surfer town named Rincon. it was very laid back. the way of life there is so very different from mine. i noticed that everything is made to get wet, leaving the impression that nothing is permanent.
for my first few days there, people would say, “tranquilidad.” it took me until my 3rd day in Rincon (my 5th day in Puerto Rico) but i began to get the feel of island time.
i knew that i would be on this adventure for 2 weeks, and could not bring myself to make any reservations. i was traveling alone, and took on the no reservations challenge as a type of spiritual, go with the flow challenge to myself. i wanted to see how i would handle just being there everyday.
this was a HUGE blessing! it enabled me to travel the entire island and even to a small island off the mainland. i was able to follow my heart as well as the suggestions of locals. acceptance was the only way to survive and actually thrive on this journey. i am grateful.
