We have had the boat in the water for about three months now, but due to some things that we can not control, we still are not back on board. Hopefully that will change, but for the time being we are house sitting for for some friends.
The house we are staying in is super cool and very big, but, compared to the sail boat, it feels strange.
I do miss Adagio! But I will stay the course and make the best of my time here in this new house. It does have a pool, so that makes things a little better! Lol....
I have been doing some gardening, growing tomatoes and herbs, so far so good, I have not killed anything yet..fingers crossed.
I confess to taking life in the same way as I did on on the sailing trips we have made, wandering aimlessly.
Wandering aimlessly could in some ways describe a lot of my life, It's not a bad thing but it's not for everyone. It takes a special faith that good things will happen to you even if you don't seek them or perhaps in spite of what you do or where you go. Think of all the things you have done in your life, hasn't it all worked out for the best?
It doesn't mean that in your life can't have goals; it just means that you need to make life itself a goal and not just something we pass through on the way to some other perceived goal. I have goals in my life and have met most of them, and I have have come to grips with those that I have not yet met, but I have thoroughly enjoyed taking the scenic route to getting there all of these years. I have no way to know where I would be now if I had been more focused, more goal oriented. Wherever it would be, I'll bet that the journey there would not have been nearly as interesting as the one I have taken. No, that's not for me, I choose to live life where I am standing at the moment and not constantly wish that I were someplace else. Wandering aimlessly I have stumbled over some beautiful places, met some of the most interesting people and have experienced life in a way that makes me grateful every day to have been on this wonderful adventure! This world we are living in right now is the real world! Make the most of it, sing, dance, and go wild!
