I did something completely crazy last week and it was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I was having one of those weeks where I wished I could just disappear to a tropical island. I wanted to lay on the beach and drink pina colodas and not worry about a thing. So, after receiving inspiration from a good friend, I booked a trip to the Bahamas. I bought the ticket on Wednesday and left on Friday!  I was fortunate to have met a pretty fantastic person when I visited the island in March. We had exchanged emails and kept in touch. Have you ever just met someone and knew instantly you would be friends for life? That’s how it was. I was greeted by a big smile and knew I was in for a fantastic trip. He had an intinerary for me that included A gym class hero concert and  a boating trip to other islands.  Not only did I get to see the island through the eyes of a native, I  met several of his amazing friends. I laughed most of the trip and at times had to make sure I wasn’t dreaming.  It was one of the best trips I have ever taken. I can’t thank my “perfect stranger friend” and his wonderful roommate for their gracious hospitality. On my last day I sat on the beach by myself and just looked out at the water, with my feet in the sand and I was completely relaxed. I am so blessed and thankful I did something out of the ordinary. I know not everyone has the opportunity to do what I did, it was a bit extreme, but every now and then do something that’s out of the ordinary that’s going to make you happy! I promise it could change your life or at least your mood 🙂
