Yokwe Yokwe

Well, I have officially been in the Marshall Islands for over a month. I can honestly say that I have adjusted. Life here is starting to feel more tranquil and more normal. I am able to enjoy the people around me, without having to tiptoe around grief and sadness. There are so many wonderful little joys to each day:

Sitting and talking with my landlady over tea and cookies
Playing with my friend L's kitten
Making new earrings and bracelets and necklaces with my new beading buddy A
Feeding my dear sweet yard cat Ocean
Watching new baby chicks scramble around the yard after mama hen
Taking in miles and miles of stars after a power outage

I feel like my breathing is coming much easier now.
What small joys have you experienced today?
