The Little Blue Sailboat

The Little Blue sailboat :  It is not what it was or what it is but what it represents.......

There she sits on blocks in the back yard............. growing older........ the trailer is rusted out  along sides...... 

Guy looks and Thinks..........

Back to our old former selves...............

Is it being free or the idea of being free............?  The mind wanders.............. then questions... unless of course it  is  bred out of us.........  is that possible?

Guy was down by the old gas station that had been remodeled and turned into a restaurant... years ago.... way down there in the Florida Keys  at Mile  Marker something........ wandering through the expansive overgrowth... where the houses had once been....... it all blended on the canvas smeared.... but the woman was there pointing out the subtle outlines where the house once stood, it then became apparent.

He knew if he kept heading a direction the same one he would break out up on the highway.....

Sure enough Guy kept heading South and........ there it was, Wa La... U. S.  1  With car after car whizzing by.....He was riding on his skate board..... and fell off.......... but he still managed to maintain his balance  just barely with just his feet skidding along the black top to a successful stop, his white tennis shoes were hot and smoking..........

Then the young woman  thought it would be fun to shoot the skate board out into oncoming traffic and  see what would happen  watching a near disaster unfold when a forest green V.W. beetle skidded off the road sideways gravel flying..... just  managing to avoid  the darting Skate Board  that was shooting out of control across the lanes, my God!  he exclaimed you could of killed someone... with your foolish behavior.........

Don't do it again.  Please.

Take the right direction.... you don't have to know necessarily  where you are going... just stay on the heading... don't go changing your mind... stay on the course... and eventually... you will see you weren't lost after all........... They are called Cardinal Headings.......... for a reason........ stay on them and see.

its a simple  navigational rule........ maintain heading when lost........  there is nothing wrong with spiraling up over rising terrain  and resuming the heading either........... Avoiding those nasty collisions with granite mountains.

The old Walkways.......they may be covered in relatively new over growth or overburden...  blinding...... so  sharpen your machete'.  Spaghetti............... there is hacking to be done.

Down around Mangrove Ma Ma's she was ......... Skate Boarding in traffic nearly causing a pile up... it could of been fatal but  it wasn't.......... 

Jump into the big Super  collider of life.......... you will likely keep missing the particles as you head upstream ...... but WOW! when  in eventuality...  you do connect
the sparks will fly......... POW! ZAP!

As you look over at the little blue Sailboat up on blocks in the backyard.......  it is not what it is sitting there but what it represents .........  Freedom to ride the wind and water..........  and steer to your own destination.....

The  Little Blue Sailboat.
