On a beach in Costa Rica, on Biscayne Bay in Miami, on Cassadaga in Central Florida and who knows where else my travels will take me. Feeding myself good reading: Paolo Coelho's The Alchemist. Feeding myself good food. And beginning to write. It is hard to leave behind the troubles and toils of Puerto Rico, but their fate is their own. There is shock, loneliness and sorrow I'll have to deal with. Embarking on new ventures of writing, long hard work ahead and I'm ready. Behind me the past and dried leaves rustling in the wind.
