White soft sand, clear blue warm ocean water, sky blue sky and the endless smiles from the genuine hospitality from the locals. Surrounded by something too good to be true, and way better than the movies.
Paradise.
Palm trees and a perfect 80 degree fahrenheit forecast, this island is perfect. A vacation much needed. A get away from the reality of a hectic and upbeat life back home.
Aaaah, finally.
Finally, no worries and I am one with nature. I count… 1 breath, 2 breaths, and I focus on my breathing while I hear the waves of the Pacific ocean crash on the white sand of this island, Boracay.
Paradise.
Hours pass and, as I lay on the beach, I watch the sky turn from baby blue to a mixture of purple and pink almost looking like sherbert with a beaming light, as I am awed by the amazing sunset that unfolds before me.
The most beautiful vision I have ever seen in the most beautiful place in the world I have ever been to.
Paradise.
And as I lay watching this gorgeous scenic once in a lifetime sunset on the island of my dreams on the other side other side of the world, I wish you were here. I miss you.
Lonely Paradise.
