As my time here comes to a close, I begin to ponder what I will take with me from this adventure. The North Rock, The Arches, Whalebone Bay, and Turtle bay were all amazing places to snorkle around and observe the marine life. The aquarium/zoo was a nice way to see these animals up close without having to look over your shoulder for your buddy or something that would take a bite out of you. But once thing I saw really touched me. We were coming back from a day at the Dockyard and we came across a long bridge. In the middle of the bridge there was a small fender-bender. Nothing serious and no one was injured. And just like a normal accident, traffic was at a standstill. But i noticed something peculiar about the stopped cars, no one was honking their horn or shouting or anything of the sort. Everyone was calm and patient about it. This made me realized that people can be kind and curtious to others. After seeing this and realizing the lesson, I told myself that if I can not be calm and serene about things that would normally bother me, I have no place here in Bermuda. And believe me, I want to return to this wonderful island. I wish I could stay longer and experience everything that this little place has to offer. But alas, I must return home. Even with all the fun I have been having with my friends here in Bermuda, I miss my family, friends and girlfriend whom i have left back home.
With serenity, Matthew Butler.
