update: the black iguana beach bar
Now that the scaffolding has been removed from the flying balcony, one can really appreciate this architectural element of the Black Iguana beach bar facility. The last photo gives an idea of the spectacular view of Bliss Beach to be enjoyed from this prominent veranda. (Rails shown are temporary safety rails.)

upside down, boy you turn me
It's that time of year at Paya Bay again when the lizards get frisky. To quote the immortal words of Ms. Diana Ross:
I said upside down
You’re turning me
You’re giving love instinctively
Around and round you’re turning me
Upside down
Boy, you turn me
Inside out
And round and round
Upside down
Boy, you turn me
Inside out
And round and round

imagine yourself happy and free
The process of creation is the same for all things, whether you want to bring something to you or remove something negative from your life.- lessons from The Secret
If you have a habit you wish to break, or anything negative you wish to remove from your life, you must focus on what you want. That means you visualize and imagine yourself in that negative-free state right now. Imagine yourself in as many scenes as you possibly can where the negative situation is completely absent. Imagine yourself happy and free. Eliminate any picture from your mind of you with the negative situation. Just imagine yourself in the state you want to be in, and feel that you are that, right now.

only the present
There is no past or future for the law of attraction, only the present, so stop referring to your life in the past as very difficult, or full of hardship and pain, or in any other negative way.- lessons from The Secret
Remember that the law only operates in the present, so when you speak of your past life negatively the law is receiving your words and sending those things back to you NOW.

fit for a queen
The vista balcony just added to the Black Iguana beach bar is just... WOW! (Note that some supportive scaffolding is still in place. Once the temporary supports are removed, this rebar-reinforced "flying" balcony will pop.)

coca and cola
These two sweet sister pups are the most recent dogs to come into our lives here at Paya. They are a perfect mix of German Shepherd and "island dog." Here they take a sunrise dip in the ocean.

you yourself
You can search throughout the entire universe for someone who is more deserving of your love and affection than you are yourself, and that person is not to be found anywhere. You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserves your love and affection.- Gautama Buddha

rewrite your story
You can limit yourself by the story you have created about you. Here are some simple examples of how the story we have created about ourselves can limit us:- lessons from The Secret
I am no good at math. I have never been able to dance. I am not a very good writer. I am very stubborn. I don't sleep well. I am very moody. I struggle with my weight. My English is not good. I am always late. I am not a very good driver. I can't see without my glasses. It is hard for me to make friends. Money seems to slip through my fingers.
The moment you become aware of what you are saying, you can delete these things and rewrite your story!
