A Beautiful Break from Manic Depression

    1. What do I see? I see one of the most beautiful and relaxing places on earth. I see people who are laid back and just move with the ebb and flow of the ocean, sun and moon. I see paradise actualized.

      1. It is the ebb and flow of the Universe. What I liked most about the people is that they knew they were part of an interconnected Universe. They made their living off tourism, farming, and fishing. They were people of both land and sea, and they were beautiful.

    1. I didn’t want to leave. We were there 8 days, 7 nights, and I have never felt so serene and calm as I did when I was there. This was before the gigantic diagnosis, but I swear the whole atmosphere and pace of island life was probably more mood stabilizing than any medication could be.

      You could see the ocean floor almost everywhere you went, and the best “touristy” thing I did was go out to feed and observe reef sharks, and pet stingrays. It was like a runner’s high. There is nothing like it in the world. The rays were so used to people (right off Club Med in waist high 80 degree crystal blue water) that they were like dogs. They just swam up on you and around you. Talk about a spiritual experience!
