Ocean Ties

We are tied to the ocean. And when we go back to the sea, whether it is to sail or to watch – we are going back from whence we came.

John F. Kennedy

Any trip I take to the ocean makes me feel refreshed. If I’m there all day, I’m tired but still refreshed. However, the whole “toes in the sand, not a worry in the world” finally hit me when I took my momcation at Marco Beach. North Eastern beaches are beautiful, but those Florida beaches have a different feel to them. Freedom is the first word that comes to mind. I remember enjoying the sunset and feeling more relaxed than I had in a long time. I printed pictures from that day to remind me of the peace I finally felt. That was about 10 years ago. I’m much more peaceful these days, but that’s where it all started. That’s where I first learned to trust the feeling that everything was going to be okay.

When asked what she wants to teach the world she replied, "Don't stop searching. Too many times, in my old life, I put my search aside for more 'important matters.' I didn't realize the thing I was searching for held what was most important; my soul purpose." Jayne works daily on improving her craft and at times can get down on herself, but her favorite morning mantra is "It's a new day." and that's what she strives to start with.
