Lessons from the Bahamas – part 1

This was my first visit to the West Indies, and my first on holidays.  My nearest other trip was to Puerto Rico, but that was a strictly business, so this was a real opportunity to see what they were like and learn about the islands and their people.  Of course, it was hot and the beaches were golden sands and the seas the turquoise you only see on postcards, but there was so much more.  I had the chance to snorkel most days and saw so many different fishes.  There was a little reef just opposite the hotel, and initially, it seemed that it might be a bit limited.  However, going out day-after-day, and seeing it under different circumstances, I found that the more I looked, the more I saw and discovered… strange that isn’t it?  The biggest underwater thrill was seeing a sea turtle, in between the reef and the beach, passing right passed all the bathers who had no idea it was even there!

When, you are in the discovery phase of Change, it is important to use your eyes.  What might first seem to be the case is not necessarily the whole story, and in fact, seldom is.  There are often hidden treasures and quirky surprises if you look for them and don’t judge too soon.
