    I have been wondering for some time what to "blog" about.  And I recently had an inspiration.  It comes from something I saw on a ferry trip I was taking to meet my sister and dad for Father's day.  As I watched the scene unfold, I was reminded of the difficulties of being with those we love when we perceive they are in distress.....
    I was watching the sun on the water when I heard a child, although not a very small child, crying and saying over and over in what I heard as a loud tone,
     "We have to hurry!  Mama, hurry!  You don't understand, we need to hurry!  Hurry! Hurry!"  She sounded so distraught that I turned to see a girl, maybe 8 years old, pulling the arm of what I assumed was her mother in the direction of a table infront of me.  Tears were streaming down her face and her face looked terrified.  They joined two teenagers at a table in front of me.
"We have to hurry!" she exclaimed, "before the boat lands!!!"
