Σε κάτι καλό
Tomorrow by midday we’ll have reached Good Hope of Africa,
the weather has already gotten a bit rough & our big beauty of a vessel has started to rock n roll it’s way forth.
So this Sunday I’ve put my efforts into an environmental-certificate test & later rewarded myself with some last sun-drenched time by the pool.
Usually there is no hard work on Sundays,
which is cherished because the crew need that time to clean their clothes, cabins & so on
– also to rest & get their mind of the work for a while.
The crewmembers from the Philippines’ have a half year contract onboard & they’re only home for three months.
I do admire their devotion to it;
most of them have big families back home who they provide with love & security by sacrificing their own comfort by choosing this way of life.
It isn’t going to be any workout for me tonight,
partly because of the heavy seas & besides I need a full day of body recovery to cope with the upcoming week.
Now it’s time to pick it up a notch, tighten the total energy intake & be more effective during the sets.
My mind has mostly been elsewhere than onboard today.
The gift I’ve opened up last night got me melting from the inside & out,
it utterly made me in high spirits.
First I didn’t comprehend it all but that’s me alright.
I’ve been giving it all a lot of thoughts since I left ground that morning in Gbg.
You know I’m glad to have you in my life & I think highly of you no matter what.
Give me an honest chance to patch up this absence when I get back.
