sitting and watching

so as i sit here in a little bistro inmiami i just watch and think. This is the life that i left behind to ollow my love for the sea, and i cant help to thinkhow thankful i am though life onland is great and mine was definately that but not as exciting. Though i miss the relationships with people on land even just your waiter at a restaurant or the keeper of the store you always go to the relationships at sea are different. Everyone has this commonality with eachother in lifethis lifeon the open waters that they share. As i talk to people that have done this for years they tell me how they always think after the contract is over im done, but then they keep comming back. Why you may wander they say time at home just becomes routine and they miss the hustle and bustle of theship
Going to a different place everyday and always having new people in yourhouse both employees and guests. As some days i absolutely love this life and some days im ready to go home i cant help but be thankful i tried this dream but wished i tried it sooner as i voukd already be well in the way of mycareer at sea and also had the funtimes of a younger age and a time of ship life when things werent as strict and theemployees had it great. The stories i her of times past help me do nothing but wonder why did i chicken out then whydid i not go for this dream why did i have the comfort of life and notwant to break out of that ubble. In a way imvery envious ofbthey people that are starting at that young age or have done it for years as that is what i wished. As you get older you need to think ofbthe future and not just the adventures to be had. Did i miss this part of my future
