Salt Water

My gypsy life brought me to St. Thomas at the end of November. Life on the island has helped me become more independent, a savvy traveler.  It has made me worry less and appreciate life more.  How amazing that this place exists?  How can I physically be anywhere that is so beautiful (besides Leland, Michigan).  I learned to live by this quote: "The cure for anything is salt water- sweat, tears, or the sea." -- Isak Dinesen. When I am stressed, I run. When I need to burst, I cry.  When I need to feel beauty, I immerse myself in the ocean water.  In my search to find myself-- what I need, what I love-- I have come to realize I cannot live without some form of salt water.
