Whenever I'm at the tipping point I put myself in a cruise
frame of mind, I take a couple of deep breaths and I can feel the ocean and sun
wash over me. It's like experiencing a rebirth of sorts, it’s type of mental getaway
from the ordinary and I can taste my favorite Caribbean
umbrella drink with Margaretville is
playing in the background of my mind. I'm literally transported to my favorite
unpopulated port of call, I'm home and my soul is at rest once again. As my
mind is replaying the photographs, snap shots, the flash cards of my life a smile slowly appears, I can smell the suntan oil ...Then
suddenly just a fast I'm snapped back to reality with the familiar sounds of
take out the trash, check the mail, Dad listen and what’s for dinner! As much
as I love my ocean adventures, my private life as a pirate, I love my real life
just as much, I could imagine not being a Dad a family man, not being needed
even if it's just being asked to listen for a moment, even if it's to run to
the store for milk, being a Father is truly the adventure that is more
rewarding and more exciting than any exotic tropical port of call, there is plenty
of time to visit these places later in life, for now I'm needed at home sweet
home :)
