That’s when I made a quiet decision to reclaim my sense of self and take control of my experience. If they weren’t going to include me, I’d make the most of this beautiful place on my own terms. I wasn’t going to let their cold shoulders ruin my time. I decided to explore Hilton Head on my own.
The island was a treasure trove of experiences waiting to be discovered. I started my day with a sunrise walk along the beach, the gentle waves lapping at my feet as the sky turned shades of pink and orange. Alone, but not lonely, I felt a sense of peace wash over me. This was my time.
