stagnation or deep reset?
I wonder often.
In darker moments; am I really ever going to go bluewater?
Sometimes I feel tied down by my possessions.
I have a love-hate relationship with this house, my car. To be honest, yes my boat.
The house; it needs constant maintenance but I lack interest, money, & prefer to be elsewhere. Yet, at other times it feels like a glove; comforting & personal. But a house, like this is not something I desired. Although Ive tamed it & shaped it to fit, it came with an outdated relationship.
A home for me would be brick or stone, essentially one roomed, sunny, in a quiet nook in a small town. I'd like water, but it attracts rats*. (* Greedy people, over consuming, noisy, profit driven.)
My boat? It challenges me. One minute too small, but too cumbersome to slip easily. I'm thinking, now more often, how much I would like to have her nearer to me. A half hour's easy commute away, where I can take a dog, or cat, a week's food & hang out, do some boat work, a little quiet cruising. That's what I need to fall in love with her. Some good experiences, some rewards for effort. A pet would add life, fun & mateship.
Maybe this is my ideal home? Its not stone, but its monocoque. Its one room, sunny & on the edge of a village. There's the water too, ample water, without the rats.
