Every time I walk into this port town, HMS Warrior- the first armor-plated, iron-hulled warship(1859) is right in the harbor standing tall and proud, a constant reminder of the age of naval dominance and the legacy  of  empire and seapower.  It  is in the misty salt water air too. Smells like Victory, Admiral Horatio Nelson's  namesake ship docked at  Portsmouth Historic Dockyard-the Royal Navy's most famous warship,  hard to believe that you can fit 800 sailors on deck. And here are some working boats back from a run on the open water Shot this image, "Just For The Hull of It!".

Running On the chalk headlands in Southern England, in November. England has such amazing Coastline. The Other side of the cliff- You could easily loose your footing, and the talc erodes constantly with rainfall.

Arundel / West Sussex / Medieval Imagination Visiting Arundel Castle, Again! It is never too late to have a good childhood imagination—or to let one old castle reopen the whole story. See Full Image Show Text Ordinary World The Call Answer the Call Foreign Land Trials The Elixir The Doorway “It’s never too late to have a good childhood imagination.” Visiting Arundel Castle, again. Rapunzel’s long blond hair falls from one of the towers toward her love. I can hear blacksmiths making weapons and townspeople cheering as knights collide in the joust. The castle is not merely stone. It is permission to enter the part of the mind that still knows how to turn walls into worlds. The Asymmetric Equation Place + Imagination = Time Travel ...

Field Note · Time Millionaires The Asymmetrical Life · The Luxury of Attention The Elixir · Contemplation One Taste The cloistered life offers a different definition of wealth: not more possessions, but more attention; not more noise, but enough silence to come back to your senses. Time Millionaires Chichester Contemplation One Taste 01 The Cloistered Life Go out of your mind to come to your senses. The monastic life reframes time as something to spend deliberately, not merely something to fill. Field Evidence 01 The Abbey The cloister is not an escape from life. It is a deliberate reduction of noise so that what remains can be noticed. Time As Wealth Nothing to prove. Nothing to accumulate. Every day, monks had to go out of their mind in order...

New York · The Elixir At the Epicenter of Memory St. Patrick's Cathedral is a landmark on Fifth Avenue. For me, it is something more: a place where New York, family, grief, gratitude, and return all occupy the same ground.

One day my life will flash before my eyes. I am making sure it’s worth watching. My life hasn't gotten better by chance; it’s gotten better by change. By changing nothing, nothing changes. When in doubt, I always have chosen change. All these changes, however, were preceded by chaos, and the bridges I burned, have lit the way.Yet, at what point is choice--the watermark  of individual freedom and self-determination that we so cherish--becomes a point of diminishing returns, a "problem" instead of a solution---That is the paradox of choice. There is no YES, in yesterday, and when you are sailing, you are what you are right there and then.  My  bizarre travel plans have been dancing lessons from God. As soon as anyone starts telling me to be realistic, I cross that person off my  invitation list. We are still friendly but no longer friends because they don’t get  IT that if you are not living on the edge, you are taking up too much space. There is wis...

The Cruising Godfather · Declassified File CG-NYC-01 The Elixir · Landfall The Harbor Appears After six days at sea aboard Cunard's Queen Mary 2 with Sarah E.
