Hello dear readers, how have your holiday's been? Did Santa bring everything you asked for? Were you good or bad? On the night of Christmas I played elf, as you can see by my previous post. We caroled and shared gifts as we had a few drinks, it was pleasant and nice and still a bit bittersweet. The year is almost over, what have you done? Where have you been? Who have you given to and taken from, who have you loved and been loved by? Even more important what will you do differently in the year to come.
6 months ago I was very much unemployed, with a hundred dollars left to my name. I was very lucky with the interview that led me to this job and now here I am. After coming from working 2 jobs a holiday season before that I sometimes still can not believe it. I vowed not to have to repeat being stuck in the rut I was in and I have to thank my family and friends who helped me out in those rough times, weather you put food in my stomach, or a shelter over my head, or simply hung out with me. You have all made for a wonderful life thus far, I cannot wait and I have no guesses what might be coming next. I only know that where my heart is, that place is set. It is with you my parents, my brother and sister in law, my nanny, aunts uncles, family friends... it is with you my lovely metaphorically adoptive polish family, as well as my college and Long Island friends. Now a bit will be with my ship life left behind in different places around the world, spread from NY to Alaska to Cali, to Hawaii, French Polynesia, Australia and New Zealand. You all make this world a wonderful place, thank you.
Alright enough sobbing go eat some great food, drink the best wine you can afford, do things you have never dreamed of and live life while we still have it, from the deepest part of my heart yours Michael / Fynn
