On faith...

That's a lovely thought!

It definitely helps me find perspective.

Good words - and a lovely picture,too.

Thanks... I took that while vacationing one year along the Gulf of Mexico.

Nice sentiment, but he didn't see the sea as it is today! Lordy its a garbage bin. We have regular trips with about fifty people to pick up the mess.. and it's even worse further south. And the Sargasso Sea is a true pit of plastic... I only wish it could be as clean as the wish and thoughts of Mahatma.

LOVELY pic tho. LOVELY.

YOUR piccy - oh wow. AND you're a sailor too??? oh my oh my what an amazing woman you are!!!!! oh my... When was the sailing and on what and how and.... I miss my bote.

Well, no, let me clarify: I was on a sailboat that someone *else* was actually doing the work of sailing. I'm no hand at hoisting the mainsail or loosening the top'sls or any of that.

I am, however, very good at passengering. *g*

[bluegerl.livejournal.com]

Yeah, well. Passengering is the best way actually. You don't have to stand under a cold shower tearing up fivers which refers to the people who OWN botes. And if the weather is inclement or there's a gale blowing you can, as a landlubber, opt out and be thought wise!

Sensible girl. But it must have been a lovely sail that evening.
