I am home. I took a little cruise to Alaska. I saw whales, glaciers, native Americans, Canada, and ocean. Despite 11 foot swells, I did not get seasick the first day out at sea. I attended Mass on the ocean almost every day.
It was a great trip for me. It helped me to clear out my head of junk and feelings of unworthiness. Somewhere on this voyage I was able to see and accept, really accept, God’s endless, gracious love for me. I found myself, the person I was made to be. Spending time staring at the sea helped me with that. It was so beautiful.
If I were 23 again, I would go live in Alaska, at least for the summer. There is something about the wilderness that draws me there. I might have to visit Alaska again someday. I don’t feel finished with that place. It is like a magnet.
