<\/a><\/p>\nFirst, you visit \u201cA\u201d\u2026 then \u201cB\u201d\u2026 and finally you are at \u201cC\u201d\u2026.<\/p>\n
Well.\u00a0 Today, we were \u201cAt Sea.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0 We are on our way to Tallin, Estonia.\u00a0 It is kind of like where they filmed Shrek, from what I understand.\u00a0 I hope to meet at least one Ogre, I suppose.<\/p>\n
Speaking of meeting people.\u00a0 There are a lot of nice people on board.\u00a0 As such, we have met a few.\u00a0 Take yesterday, for example. Our bus stopped late in the evening for our final bathroom break. Thankfully. So we immediately disembarked and headed for the Public Restrooms.<\/p>\n
Well, here is the deal.\u00a0 You can\u2019t pee unless you have Euros.\u00a0 We didn\u2019t have Euros.\u00a0 And I HAD to pee.\u00a0 Two very nice men from our bus gave us Euros\u2026. which enabled us to pee.\u00a0 Not everyone would do such a thing.\u00a0 They were kind.<\/p>\n
However, let\u2019s revisit the subject of Ogres.\u00a0 The big dining area on this ship…. is a huge buffet, with every type of food imaginable.\u00a0 From Muffins to Minestrone.\u00a0 People seem to really like it\u2026 you can eat as much as you wish.\u00a0 Yet it has an odd effect on the common human.\u00a0 Even though there is plenty to eat\u2026 and there is no apparent danger that this food source will run out\u2026. people tend to get a tiny bit cut-throat at the diner.\u00a0 No holds barred.\u00a0 It is a bit like a full-contact-buffet \u2026. in the middle of the ocean.\u00a0 The Pro-Wrestling Channel Meets The Food Network Meets The Love Boat.<\/p>\n
All in all, today was another great, relaxing day.\u00a0 Tonight we had dinner, and then played some highly competitive Yahtzee among the four of us. In one game\u2026. we were all getting crappy dice rolls.\u00a0 It appeared we were in the same boat.<\/p>\n
And then it dawned on me.\u00a0 We are on a cruise.\u00a0 We REALLY are all in the same boat here.<\/p>\n
But in the broader scope of things\u2026 this is apropos to all of us.\u00a0 We are sharing a big blue ball here. The biggest boat of all.\u00a0 And.\u00a0 The future of this ball is effected by what we do.\u00a0 Everyday.<\/p>\n
For that reason\u2026 maybe it truly is important that we all start with little things.\u00a0 Sweep in front of our own doors.\u00a0 Take good care of ourselves\u2026. and of each other.\u00a0 Start with little steps.\u00a0 Venture into the journey.<\/p>\n
Yes.\u00a0 We truly are all in the same boat.\u00a0 Ogres and Angels\u2026. alike.<\/p>\n
In a world where there is so much to be done, I felt strongly impressed that there must be something for me to do.\u00a0 –\u00a0 Dorothea Dix<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\nOur prime purpose in this life is to help others. And if you can’t help them, at least don’t hurt them.\u00a0 –\u00a0 Tenzin Gyatso, 14th Dalai Lama<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
