My 12/12/12

I spent Wednesday morning, December 12, 2012 (12/12/12) on the beach at Port Royal, Jamaica. I made an airport drop off and made my way to the nearby Port Royal (long time pirate haunt) instead of back to Kingston straight way. I had not been beachcombing in a while but this morning I did so much more; I ate my 'original' papaya by a boat on the beach, then I took off my shoes to get more connected with the earth and scrunched up my toes in the black sands as I walked along taking pictures intermittently as I picked up the bounty from the beach. This was my absolutely best beachcombing exercise as far as I could remember.
I found lots of shells and other stuff as I walked further and further and had many new ideas as the sea crashed into the shore and washed over my bare feet and legs. I passed a few people along the way, walking/exercising/fishing; they all said good morning and I responded in kind. (Good manners is apparently easier on an empty beach.) There were also lots of dogs, some with people and some by themselves.

I will try to post pictures of my 12/12/12 finds at a later date, but this was just a quickie post to document the day before it ends. My body aches and I'm very tired but I think my two hour long beach jaunt was well worth it. I should do this more often and I would certainly reccommend it as a healthy habit to commune with nature and you never know what you might find. Stay tuned! 

In search of Healthy

I'm on a search for healthy. I've been on the search for a while now but I haven't really found it yet. Maybe it's the journey that counts. I've found some interesting things along the way and I've even tried some.

I've also been trying to go green or become greener for a while now and I think the two concepts are somehow intertwined, hence my 'Healthy Green Blog'. I believe that if one could go completely green one would be healthy but it would be practically impossible to do in the here and now of the modern world. Maybe if I lived on the moon; I assume there's no pollution or any humans creating pollution there but we have to work with what we have; so I'm attempting to go green and become healthy in the suburbs of Kingston, Jamaica otherwise called St. Andrew.

Good health is a fragile thing. If you have it,you need to cherish it because it's pretty scarce. One's health is impacted by so many things, the things we eat, where we live, what we do for a living, how we live and play, the things we did in the past, our ancestors and much more.
