Pamparo in Toronto

It’s our third day in Dominican Republic and we took a trip on one of the Catamarans. I am lying down with my eyes close on a net in front of the boat. Nothing but water under and wind on our face . My son was lying beside me in my arms and my wife was sitting on the other side. Most of the songs being played that day are dance/disco music. For no apparent reason, our “DJ” just started playing “Beautiful Day” by U2. I am not a very big fan of U2, but this trip has definitely given new meaning to this song, especially this part:

It was a beautiful day
Don’t let it get away
Beautiful day

Touch me, Take me to that other place
Reach me, I know I’m not a hopeless case

What you don’t have you don’t need it now
What you don’t know you can feel it somehow
What you don’t have you don’t need it now
Don’t need it now, Was a beautiful day

It was indeed a beautiful day. That very moment reminded me of God and how much thankful I am for my life and for giving me the things that I really need … God and my family!

This is definitely one of the highlights of our trip that I will always cherish forever.

Amazing how much of how we feel can affect the songs that we play. Here’s a short 45-secs clip that pretty much describes how we are feeling now as we prepare for our very first trip to the Dominican Republic. We’ve been praying to God to give us a great weather to enjoy His creation and just to be able to spend time with the family.

Without further ado, I give you: Sunny Day

Have fun, we sure will
