Rooted in Gratitude by the Sea

When life slows down and we find joy in its simplest pleasures, free from everyday obstacles, it feels like paradise. We are deeply fortunate to spend time in such a beautiful corner of the world. The weather is gentle, the sun nearly constant, and each day feels like a gift. When we pause to recognize what truly matters, the simplest moments take on deeper meaning. Nature is our most precious treasure, yet too often it is taken for granted as material pursuits overshadow our shared humanity—our need for love, compassion, and harmony with one another.

I am profoundly grateful to be here in the Dominican Republic, by the sea, listening to the power and rhythm of the waves. Water, with all its strength, is endlessly magnificent. As the ocean whispers, it carries messages of divinity, reminding me that we, too, are part of something greater.
