It feels so silly to cry over this but I recently posted about how to get home with this injury and the simple unknown of how bad it is versus what I can see. And the kindness from all these humans in the solo travel group made me burst into tears because I’ve felt so overwhelmed and it’s just nice sometimes to have reassurance it’s going to be OK. I think my anxiety is mainly on getting home, and I know that things happen and there’s so much out of my control in these next few days but I am doing everything to prevent more harm to my body.
And it makes me even more emotional having to say bye to my surf instructors this way, when today was meant to be the day they did pictures and recordings, etc. it’s just sad. my surf instructor gave me a hug and reassured me it was going to be OK traveling home and then they all told me to call if anything happens in the interim between now and heading home and they would come help if I needed them.
There’s nothing else to really say besides I feel sad and I think it’s OK and I’m also scared to physically travel which is so unlike me. I know that I’m going to be fine, I just don’t like doing travel like this when I feel so vulnerable and literally wounded. I am lucky though, because the locals of the village have literally been so kind taking me to and from so I don’t walk the mountain in the sun, or helping with herbs… and I’ve been here for almost a month but I’m a stranger to them still basically. And there’s something about….people being so abundantly generous in spaces where freaking clean water is a luxury that it just makes me emotional. I’ve been crying for the last half hour and I think I’ll probably cry for another few hours but I’m just having big feelings.

I’ve been working on a new series called “I’m Grateful!” I’ve noticed some sneaky negative influences in my life so this is a way to remind myself, when I’m lost, that I have been given so many good things. It feels right to post Pt. 1 the day before I do the #shamrockshuffle
