The End

They say that every beginning has an end. For I suppose this concept is true, at least that is what we can conceive. There are highs and lows, peaks and valley's, and sunny days and dark days. I am reminded by the Christian story known as "Footprints," which basically says that their creator never leaves them but in their loneliest moments of need when they believe to have been abandoned THAT is the moment that they are carried by their Lord. This must be the time in which I am piggy backing. I have no one to blame but myself. I have no shipmates to point to in accusation for I am the sole sailor aboard this ship. I am the captain, first mate, and engine man. As the navigator of this vessel of life, the paths I have chosen have led me to the rocks that I have run ashore upon. What is this purpose of solitude, I ask... This feeling that drives me to the end... Is it time to abandon ship?

Never abandon ship. Take time to patch and make repairs, but only in anticipation of a new course.
