I am leaving here tomorrow and going back to regular life. Don’t know what that will be like, having immersed myself in this other world for 2 months. Part of me is excited. Places I can go, people I can see. Then the other part is a bit nervous. What’s it going to be like? Will I be overwhelmed by the freedom? Our ability, as human beings, to adapt to any given environment never ceases to amaze me. I never thought that I would ever adapt to the isolation, but sure enough I have. Within my limited space here, I’ve made a comfortable little life for myself. I have my worker friends and my animal friends, the jungle, my books, my laptop, and my life seems very full. I even have routines, like checking on the puppies when I wake up, or watching Jeopardy at 7:30 (the only show I watch here). I’m going to miss this place. I can’t believe it, but it’s true. Helen, one of the dogs who was such a scared little thing when I met her, lets me pet her now, and kiss her head, and she lets out these little cries as if to say that she’s wanted to be pet for so long. It breaks my heart every time. And it breaks my heart to leave her and the puppies. Definitely going to miss the view. Ahhh, and the chironjas. I don’t know what I’m going to do when I crave one, but the thought of it is super depressing.
Let me switch to the things I’m not going to miss. The machismo. The men and the way they think they can talk to me. I’m so not going to miss that. The awkward dynamic in the house. Always having bugs in my room. Clean dishes that aren’t actually clean. And mold.
Many things I will not miss, but I appreciate them all. Each in their own way has made me a stronger more adaptable person, better equipped for this unpredictable thing called life:) So thank you Puerto Rico. You’ve been a wonderful host.
