Still searching
Today marks the two year anniversary of Julia sailing under the Golden Gate. After six years of sailing over 40,000 miles, I am still asked how I’m doing with re-entry. As I continue to search for ways to fit a square peg into a round hole, this may help you understand how I feel. And you get a sneak peek at one of the
upcoming book’s preface pages. Enjoy.

I have stood at the edge
Of the oceans.
I have stared in awe
At the power before me,
That pulled and tugged
Until there was only the sea.
I left my life behind
To become a wanderer.
To explore, to live on the edge
To search for something.
For that one thing that could satisfy
The urge that comes over me,
To keep moving, to see, to wonder.
I have circled the globe,
Sailed the seas,
Stared into death’s eye.
Yet still my thirst remains unquenched.
And now I stand on the edge again
Staring at the wind blown waters,
Wondering where I belong.
Do I go or do I stay.
I ask it of myself
Each and every day.
