If the maturity you've shown over the past year is any indication, I think you'll be a great driver. Stay safe and enjoy your new challenge!!

Splash !! Whoosh...Ssswwisshh...A Wave across the deck.....Thud!
Thump!! Parker squeeks...and squeals...the bow rises and falls into the trough...flap...crack...flutter...flutter..the sails pause..loose...for a moment...as Ella’s Pink Lady
And Jessica surf...for a long,long moment...across the top and down ...the back of a liquid mountain
Jessica shrieks with delight !!Smiling with a song in her heart..and singing with a smile..,in her voice.
In the harmony of wind and wave...forever young!!

Hi Jessica and Beverly

I too am hoping that from time to time you will let us know how you are going Jesse. Maybe even some words of wisdom about how you are coping with the calm times and more turbulent times of your new journey with Mike (LOL - it's none of my business! but I'm guessing you will handle the unexpected, the stormy and the quieter more peaceful moments with Mike just like you did on your 7 month journey around the world).

To Beverly from the Apple Isle. I don't think I can really help. I don't know much at all about the condition you are coping with. Let me say, if you want to take a leaf out of Jessica's (soon to be published) book - one thing that will always stick in my memory is her comment that after being knocked down by a huge wave in the southern ocean she came up smiling - because she survived what the world was throwing at her. That is a great attitude to take through life I reckon. If you could perhaps realise that there are millions of people around the world who have downers from time to time and hopefully realise that one of the many ways to help you through those tough times is to wear a bit of Jessica's magical attitude then hopefully it will give you just a little extra push to lift your spirits.

Best of luck Beverly. I know it is easy for me to say those things and I'm not sure what you are enduring in your life at the moment. Being kind to others (as you have shown in your recent blog) is I'm sure something else that will help you.

And of course, when you get to read Jessica Watson True Spirit that will definitely give you a lift I reckon!

Cheers for now,
Mike
